And check out the Apple 1 computer in the sale which was checked out by a computer expert associated with InfoAge. Video on the website if you dig far enough. They sold one last year for $750K or so before premiums. A guy in Florida saw the news on that sale and went to the basement and pulled another one out that his dad had sold in his early computer store. The woman did not like it and traded up. The trade-in was in the basement since. And it is in better working condition than the last one.

Stay tuned. Reports Monday after I get off the train. The Fed decision to raise interest rates follows.

A basement in Florida, that is almost as rare as an Apple 1 !

Here's an interesting lot in the same auction http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/22964/lot/67/. Oh what fun it would be to read through that collection.

Looks like the Apple and TVs failed to sell.

The three TV items did not sell, conformed by the Bonhm's sale price list.

The biggies that did were the Charles Darwin "do not believe in the Bible" letter, the physical Nobel Prize medal, and the Enigma machine.
