A little bit of history

A long-time friend of mine (and Rory's), Craig Miller, discovered recently he may be sitting on money. He bought a Mark-8 computer in 1976. This is one of the original microcomputers, folks. Turns out it may be worth as much as $5,000 - $12,000 (Not bad for not being used since 1980). He has had it stored in his attic and garage.

(Remember while looking at this, it was before CRT's became popular).

Oldest system I have my hands on is my Atari Portfolio. This little bugger ran DOS, and still works! Wonder how much it is worth...
