Worth, Costs, Is Valued at... all highly relativistic concepts
don't you think?

What about history? My book says that only 50 PDP-1's
were produced. Almost certainly 50%++ were scrapped.
Anybody know where all the PDP-1's are? I'd like to see
one (or more).

BTW, on thread. A good clean runnung PDP-11 with SW
and docs can fetch over $4K, to the original question.
