Ok, Im gonna go get some powerball tickets and cross my fingers! I like the
two newton prototypes that look like an early attempt at creating an iPad,
this stuff should be in a real museum, not up for sale in my opinion. It
would be interesting for a piece on how some creations are created in
prototype some 10-20 years before their time. Another good example, look at
how long SGI has put stereographic 3D glasses ports on their computers, and
have had the capabilities, but now it is finally hitting the consumer TV
market.

There was a time when I would have considered bidding on at least one of

the money I used to spend on Classic Computers is now targeted for more
realistic things.
The disturbing thing is, while I'm trying to get rid of most of my
collection I'm in the middle of my biggest (and best) Commodore haul ever.
It is free, and slowly being delivered from out of state. Oh, well, I said
I was keeping a lot of the Commodore stuff. :-)

I see a couple items there that I'd be
interested in, but no way am I
spending that kind of money on anything like that!
I've never seen the general attitude of classiccmp summed up so
succinctly. ;)
