Wow, how extraordinary a price for such a boring (in terms of design if not impact), well-understood, easy-to-replicate computer. You can be sure it wasn't a vintage computer enthusiast as much as a business enthusiast who got it... :)Sorry I'm such a hater, I've just never understood the Apple 1 thing very much.
For buyers with that kind of dough, it's not about the computer, it's about bragging rights.
