The value of this kind of thing is purely subjective, depending solely on what it (and $900) are worth to *you*, and I too feel that there's something very special about that model and the community that grew up around it (especially here in Toronto, Commodore's birthplace and home of Jim Butterfield, TPUG, The Transactor, Batteries Included etc), as opposed to AppleIIs & R-S M1s. Remarkable that TPUG (Toronto PET Users' Group) is still around, and even with some of the original members (although scaled down somewhat from its glory days). Of course it was my 'first' and I have many warm memories and pictures of me and family playing with it, not to mention all the doodads & mods I made for it, so I'm somewhat biased. Then again, from the point of view of the 'collectors' on this list, it should be worth $0... m
