Dave,

The price on that WB, or OS, 4005 is a super bargain in today's market. They usually go for more now.
Yes, mind blowing indeed. But worth it! IMHO.

Dave, that's the down side of being on the other side of the planet. Whilst I'm sleeping all the good stuff gets listed on eBay! If I could just figure out how to stay awake 24/7 I'd snap up all of the bargains!

In fact, the moment I saw the listing and clicked on it, John hit the BIN button and the auction ended right in front of me. I thought I recognised John's eBay ID, and was pleased that the 'young fella' scored it. Image

John, I expect to see it at Rick '75. Image
