	I'm not qualified to judge the value behind the price, but from
what recent threads have said, doesn't the next owner somply have to
make sure he gets the manuals and included peripherals from Alan
*before* he buys?  Then he'd be in the same boat as lots of other used
computer buyers.  And if you have the reciept and customer # can't you
get support then?
