I would call them not too common (around these parts at least). I've only
come across maybe 4 or 5 in my travels. One was given away at VCF 2.0 (as
part of an IMSAI system), one sits in my collection (I may have
two...don't know for sure).

No, I was meaning why do they go for so much
now.. They're certainly not
rare or for that matter, reliable. Not to mention that I find them ugly,
ugly, ugly! But that last part was opinion.. Still, if you need a terminal
today, get like a wyse-55 or something.
Not rare? They're pretty rare from where I'm sitting. Not to be
argumentative, but I've seen ONE (an ADM-5, now in my basement) in all
my travels in about the past ten years.
