Speaking as an expert in the field (or at least an expert by marriage; my wife works at the Computer History Museum) it's a rare piece of computer equipment that's worth more than scrap value. If you've got a working CDC 7600 (or any part of Edsac) it may be gaining in value, but most of the mass-produced stuff is basically worthless. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
