Sam, I forked out $300 for the transparent Mac Portable.
All the feedback I got from the Mac Usenet conferences is
that its a really rare item, so I don't regret spending that
much on it. I don't doubt that I could sell it on ebay
instantly for much more. But I've never sold anything, just
bought and held on to them.

I've been collecting for about 8 years (I know, that makes
me a Newbie :) ) I've been hitting the Foothills College
swap meet for 5 or 6 years, but now there is too much
competition. 3 years ago, I was able to pick up an IMSAI
8080 chasis with cards for only $5, and all the S-100's
I could load into my truck. Now I can't find anything.
