I remember those!

(Bryan, Applefritter will sell you a 5-pack for US$349.95 :-)

The Applefritter article says they were originally sold for $500 each. I 
remember them being advertised in one of the Apple II magazines, 
probably in the late 1980s, at a much reduced price. They were one of 
those things that everyone wanted but no one could afford.
