So I guess I've got $30,000 in the other room. :crazy:
Actually, my Kaypro machines are much less complete and in bad shape, but I got them for $10 each. Canadian dollars. When the Canadian dollar was probably worth $.65 US. :-)
And they're not both Kaypro II models. One is a Kaypro 2.
From the eBay posting:
The Kaypro II is unusual because the entire case is made out of metal.
Is that so unusual? I'd have to think about it. I think wooden cases are much more unusual. Both of my PETs have cases completely of metal. Plus the face of the Kaypro, with the screen and disk drives, is plastic, so it's more plastic than my PETs. :-)
For really interesting and possibly valuable classics with metal cases, I think that my GRiD Compass beats the Kaypro. Bubble memory, funky orange display (plasma?), in a clamshell magnesium-alloy case!
I think I'll put it on eBay with a starting bid of $15,000,000.00!
