Courtney,

I was surprised to find out that there is a market for vintage
computers. I did some searching and saw that a NeXT cube goes for
$1000.00. However, I'm more interested in them finding a loving home. I
make it a condition that if the new owner needs to get rid of them that
they have to find another collector. I hate to seen them end up in a
land fill. If that happens I would rather they be recycled. ;(
