I'm not *bitter*, David... just a touch suspicious. I've been around the 'Net long enough to have been through this kind of thing before.. If in fact you are trying to preserve history and consolidate and tabulate Altair resources... then you have ny vote. I do the same with other items of by-gone "tech" that are not germaine to this List (and thus not mentioned here often by me). There are active collectible computer dealers here, there are E-bay proponents and there are those who decry both camps. I am a private collector and I do not participate in the various on-line auctions because I think they distort the hobby... but I am all for Darwinian Capitalism... ie.: "You *go* girlfriend..." I am more concerned with my orivacy, personal safety and the safety of my property. If I was *paranoid*, I'd not post anything at all re: my motely collection. But I try to be a smidge *careful* who I entrust with such info. Perhaps you will understand my thoughts better now. I ain't "bitter", just carefully observant, and leery of what appears to be commercial exploitation of a hobby I enjoy. Cheers David.. John
