>Stardent ($100. No other information)

This machine is probably the most interesting of the lot. The Stardents
were graphics "supercomputers", using parallel MIPS CPUs and vector units.
They were quite the graphics stations of their day (late 1980s), much as
SGIs are now. There performance is quite impressive, even compared to
today's PeeCee.

If I were near Ann Arbor, I would seriously consider this machine,
providing, of course, that the disk(s) are still there with (hopefully) an
operating system.
