Wow. As far as IIGS' go, that's the rarest -- an original ROM0 Woz edition. I would have to guess that 99% of the original IIGS owners got the free upgrade when it was offered. After spending that kind of money, you'd have been stupid not to get it.
If you're inclined to collect it, you should make sure it stays out of light, to keep it from fading/yellowing. If you aren't inclined to collect it, you should be able to fetch a nice price for it on ebay from a collector who realizes it's rarity. Nice find!
