Apple LISA early spec

Found this early 1980 LISA spec from Apple today, fascinating to see the new UI described 2+ years before any public preview. You feel like a archaeologist.

Place your bets on this Apple II

A very nice Rev 0 Apple II on eBay.
Already way above my budget, I am thinking it will go north of $25 000. Place your bets on the final price.

Edit: The original auction was ended, then re listed. No idea why,

Not too shabby. Powells in Portland has a store dedicated toscience and half of it is full of computer stuff. Not much in term of retro,but check out these cool machines they have on the top of their shelves.

Some small scavenging hunt in Portland, I stopped by Videogame Wizards (http://www.vgwpdx.com/). They have some Atari area things, but most of their games are newer. The numberof games cramped in that tiny store is impressive and most of their prices aregood. I ended up getting a Dreamcast for $30 and Space Channel 5 for $5.

Also a lot of older Dvds in the store, I guess there aresome collectors for these too.
