Another case of ST00PID bidders with no clue as to what they're bidding
on. If I was unscrupulous I could be making a fortune on ebay right now at
the expense of all these computer collector wannabees.
And as far as I know, Steve Wozniak's signature is not in the mold. Every
Mac up to and including the Mac Plus had these signatures inside. The
truly rare Mac's are the first 100 or so off the line which included a
placard on the back thanking the individual team member that that Mac was
given too (i.e. their name appears on the placard).
