A friend of mine was checking out the local thrift/used item (not
non-profit) shops one afternoon... there was a poster in the window that
said "64 Computer - $2000." He went to the back where it was... A C64, no
monitor, no disk, no tape, no PSU. They were serious. He and his girlfriend
laughed at the people and left.

Just like the guy I saw at a hamfest that wanted $200 for a Packard Bell
386. (Next to the guy that was selling the Toshiba 386 laptop with docking
station for $25 - I talked him down to $20)
