A friend of mine from the Surplus store I go to told me a story about how he used to live in California near where these are made. He went dumpster diving one day, not sure if it was an Apple dumpster or one nearby, but he found one of these exact machines, though it was even an earlier prototype, not yet refined to the point of looking like it could be sold yet. He said he had sold it a little bit later and got enough money for it to buy a legit Macintosh since he had found it after they had come out. I doubt Apple would've let a prototype like that just sit in a dumpster before the actual thing had come out, I think he said this was around 85 or 86. Pretty cool hearing about a part of the Macintosh history firsthand, that machine isn't worth anywhere near the amount they are asking on eBay though...
