Anyone want to buy an Osborne 1 for $1000?
Didn't think so. However, if
you're interested in trying to talk this guy down to reality, I have the
contact info.
One of the original demo/proto Oz Ones with a metal case (of which Gale
Rhoades once said there were about a dozen) went for $1000 -- IIRC -- on
Onsale a couple of years ago. Not an ordinary one, no, but we have to be
sure what the dude's got.
His has a serial number in the 143,000 range so I doubt there's anything
special about it unless it has Jimmy Hoffa's left pinky inside or
something.
