Postings like this are a clear violation of the
not-for-personal-profit nature of the net; a discussion of what used
equipment should sell for is okay, but not advertising!  (One can't flame
too badly at Bill, however; you have to admire anyone courageous
enough to try to sell an used, unenhanced mac, together with a
now-worthless 400K drive and a mix of mostly software losers -- like
UCSD pascal and hippo c -- for $200 more than the LIST price of a new
enhanced mac! :-)
