Well don't forget that:
"An infinite number of monkeys, given an infinite amount of time, will spend
an infinite amount of money on the most infinitely old technology."
I recently went to a local "thrift" shop that had 486 boxes *behind glass*
running the Flying Windows screensaver (which never worked right), marked
with prices of over $200... A IIsi was sitting nearby on an open shelf in a
stack of other stuff. $60! Hah! (I did check for a ROM simm, though. You
never know.)
If only people realized the rate of depreciation for computers.
And if only that same rate applied to cars. I'd be happily driving my '75
Ferarri Berlinetta that I found at a dealership for $25. :)
