On the other hand, a piece of ENIAC from Eckert's estate was up for auction
this weekend in Philadelphia
(http://skinner.lycos.com/Scripts/ListingInfo.asp?LotNo=10083515&SiteCatNo=8
1397).

Opening bid was $4K, they expected it to go to $8-$12K US. They didn't get
a nibble! Go figure! I was rather tempted, but don't have that deep
pockets.
