Some of them can be traced back to original owners (most of them are still
owned by the original owners!) The Apple 1 auctioned at VCF 4.0 was owned
by Ray Borrill, who bought 15 to sell in his computer store in
Indianapolis, Indiana (USA). All of them sold, save for one he used one
for a store display. He tucked it away at some point and forgot about it.
Last year he decided it was finally time to sell it :)

Cool, see you there!

If you don't know what Eric is talking about, it's the first VCF East
Coast! July 28-29 at the Royal Plaza Trade Center in Marlborough,
Massachusetts. The website should be update with complete details within
the next day or so. I'll make an announcement when it does.
