Doug's mad that he can't buy every 50s gizmo at sufficiently low prices at online auctions only he's supposed to know about, and Sam's mad because so many people have become more aware of the value ($ or personal) of old computers, raising the prices, yet the VCF is part of the engine doing just that. I fully support and admire the VCF, but you've got to admit that every list member's efforts to publicize our collections through vanity web sites is affecting the public's perception of the value of old computers. I won't be truly happy until my Teraks have appreciated from the $1-$25 I've paid for them, to Altair-sized prices, of course. :-) - John
