HOT DAMN!!! Now THAT's a COLLECTION!

I saw this on the Jag's House forum:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Classic-Retro-Vi...ayphotohosting

Now THIS is impressive!!! They even have some obscure ones that I haven't even seen before, although I do remember the Commodore PET that I used to use when I was in grade school at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Catholic School in Brooklyn.

My wife would have my loins if I were to ever come into something like this!

Who would get rid of such a fine collection? Even still, good luck bidders! My first computer ever was a Commodore 64 that I used in the 1st grade.

Old PCs? A skip/dumpster would be a better place for 'em than eBay!

i disagree, for history's sake they shouldn't be trashed. they don't run windows anymore, so they arent a threat to anyone now! kids today have no sense of history (in any respect, not just computing), and should be preserved for their sake.
