I'd like to see a dig like they did for the Atari ET carts where the Lisas are buried.
?Although, I think they were all Lisa 2s?

 how astonishingly retarded that they sold for that much.  
 nah.. maybe Alan in Soquel will list the ones he's been hoarding. 

In non-computer-related sales that initially commanded an outrageous
price, I've seen the prices of subsequent sales decline precipitously.

So Alan may not be in such a deliriously happy place.

Sort of like a stamp collector selling a specimen thought to be the only
one in existence and then discovering that there were 10 more out there.

In particular, I have to wonder how much of this stuff is buried in
overseas e-waste piles.
