Matt can say "laugh of the day," but a couple of years ago I did authentication and provenance on one that sold for $12,000, the last one I SAW sell went for $22,000, and there's one for sale in Southern California (with Apple packaging, full paperwork and a signed letter from Jobs,) for $30,000 -- it hasn't gone yet, but it will, probably to Japan. Yes, $17K is (mildly) a deal. AFAIK there are only about eighty of the little dears left, and think of the number of people who want one. To tell the truth, in the last year or so there's begun to be concern about counterfeiting. __________________________________________ Kip Crosby engine(a)chac.org http://www.chac.org/index.html Computer History Association of California
