Also, Garriot has done this himself -- he has taken some of the original labels, put them on disks, put the program on it, and given them to friends and those have sold for $300 or more.

It's an interesting problem. How could you tell it was a forgery?

My view is that if it isn't authenticated by Garriott or you can follow the ownership trail back to Garriott you should assume it's a forgery.



The value of an Akalabeth made your way is exactly ZERO.

See above. Garriot has done this and the value wasn't zero.

He's the original manufacturer. ;-) Thus his stuff is new 'old stock'.
