These are classic old machines

It will be interesting to see how the price goes on this one. If I lived in Auckland I'll be bidding on it for a spare.

Looks like it's the early model. I remember really, really wanting one of these when they first came out,

There's been a few this year on auction. 5 to 6 all up by my counting so maybe there's more of them around than my initial guesstimate. This will be the fourth from the seller this year for auction seeing the last time he sold of three in a go (unless one was kept back?)

As I have one now it's finally off the want list. I'd feel happier if bidding on this one were around the $160 mark :)

It's a pity not too many collections are listed in full as it would be interesting to know how many of the different less common and rarer computers or models were around the country, especially a map of where all the one-of's might be dotted around the country.
