Today I was able to find the keyboard and monitor for the 2000HD I got
yesterday.
Stopped at Borders Book store and found the January 2003 Nuts & Volts has a
good article on the Altair 880 titled MICRO MEMORIES. Maloney's Antiques &
Collectibles Resource Directory list Computers as a collectable and points
several people we all know as experts and recommends books and sites to
check out. Also while there looked in Warman's Flea Market Price Guide 2nd
Edition (2001) it also list computers as something to look for but boy the
prices they give way out of range. Here's are some: a Mac 128 $350, a Mac
Plus $50, a IIc $65, a Atari XL800 $125, and a Epson HX-40 $125. Check it
out for the remaining ones.

There's only one thing to do: go to the flea markets as listed in the
calendar section of that guide and sell your Mac Plus' for the bargain
price of ONLY $40 (which is still about $35 marked up from what they're
really worth).

Those prices are way too high, even for EBAY sellers. Then again the guide
was put out during the internet boom when everybody overpaid for
collectables since they were making good money.
