Sun Remarketing is interesting. They were a purveyor of way

That brings back some memories!
I bought my first ever Mac from Sun Remarketing. I'd used an SE/30 for
some time at work by then, and around mid-1992, I bought a Mac Classic
II (new) from them. I think I paid around $800 for it.
Years later, I brought that compact to Quito, Ecuador for my then
father-in-law to use as a word processor to replace his ancient
portable manual typewriter. (He writes poetry and a sort of
fictionalized history.) He's published at least 2 books that I know of
using that little guy.
