Two Altairs auctioned simultaneously, with a 3x price differential. Guess I'm sitting on a fortune with my 5 Altairs, but I'd never sell them (and I mean that, whereas Jim used to say he'd never sell his either).

That's a 600% increase from the last batch, and even beats the last Apple 1 sale I know of. I'll bet that the bidders get solicitations for about 100 Altairs in the next few days. -- Doug
