Interestingly, although the winning bidder was pushed up an extra 1K by one of those feedback-1 trolls, there were a couple of real bidders right underneath them. So that price is _basically_ real; three people all felt it was worth roughly that. It's so bizarre, the way some stuff is in such demand, and other stuff is basically totally unwanted. I told this guy: http://www.ebay.com/itm/221685737714 there was no way he'd get that much for that set of cards, and he was like 'but some of this old computers stuff is going for a ton of money'. I was like, 'For things which are in short supply, and in demand, yes; neither of those is true of M8044/M8045's....' (Although for them, it's understandable; there are plenty of higher-density QBUS memory cards going for not much.) Noel
