I am selling a PB550 prototype.  This is the Bonzai Blackbird that was sold
in Japan in black.  This is a prototype with regular 520/540 Blackbird
color plastics.  I'd say this is a very unusual version of an unusual
Blackbird.

This is not a PowerBook for someone looking for a cheap beater.  It makes
much more sense for someone who really likes the looks of the Blackbird
series, and wants to own an unusual system.  It is more of a collectors
item than commodity item.

smooth proto gray plastics, 750 MB, 4MB (can configure to 36), internal
modem, full 040 floating point daughtercard...fully functional

I think this computer is worth more than $2000.  But if there is some
hidden supply in an Apple vault that has been unearthed - it's negotiable.
