Re: $1225 for an Apple IIGS???

["Jason Whorton" <jason@microxl.com>]

Hello.  I can't remember where I read that, but my main point is that from
what I have read, heard in the newsgroups, etc., if it was the 20th one
made, I thought it was supposed to be a Woz edition, Rom 00.
    Has anyone bothered to e-mail the high bidder?

Thank you,
Jason Whorton
