I'm probably just nostalgic, but to me this hardware is a piece of history that's mostly forgotten or overlooked by anyone who wasn't working in IT at the time. That's why I've been trying to get museums to take it, because my hope would be they'd do something educational with the hardware. Alas, selling is indeed probably my only recourse if I don't want these things to end up on the heap (right away.)

I was there wishing I could afford those amazing machines. My point with the pricing is to hopefully find someone who values the machine as more than a sum of its parts. Speaking of which it reminds me of the youtube channel save it for parts. Saving old tech is not very popular. We lost Living Computers: Museum + Labs after Paul Allen died.
