Just ignore him...not only is he our resident troll, he's also not the
sharpest tool in the shed.

George, both my chess skill and IQ are much much higher than yours. You know
that was well as I do. I tried explaining some concepts to you in the small
and simple terms that you're used to but you STILL don't understand.

Boy George here is so incredibly dumb he can't even figure out on his own
how to patch the fritz to avoid the CD check prompt.

You're the one we'll be ignoring buddy.

Sure it would John. That's why you're getting bombarded with so many bids.
What? You don't have any bids yet? How can that be?

Let me explain something to you Mr. Hendlin. The value of something is only
what someone else is willing to pay. Your fantasy of it's antique value is
doubtful. I'd be surprised if you could get $200 for that electronic
dinosaur.

Sure they are John. Let's talk 5 years from now when you're trying to dump
it for $100 to help pay the rent. There is a reason you're trying to pawn it
off on some sucker now and not waiting 5 years John.

FYI, if you're going to try to pretend to be someone else and use a google
account to posts from, make sure you do it through a proxy server so it
isn't obvious you're the same person.

Regards,

JMR

Because of what? As a collector's item?

> - they simply do not depreciate and in fact are going up

Again: why? This would be a very unique feature for an electronic device.

I am aware that some things might be interesting for collectors. But
$1900 as starting bid?? Plus $50 shipping costs? I wonder who busy such
stuff.

Only $1,900 for obsolete, antiquated technology that would lose every game
to Pocket Fritz running on a Palm Pilot.

WHAT A BARGAIN!!
