Ouch, not for $200...

What is with people who think that just because some big name organization owned the item at one point, it is instantly worth a lot of money?

Now if the computer was a prop in a Disney movie, and there is a certificate of authenticity proving so, that's one thing. Or if the NASA computer in question actually flew in space, and has a certificate of authenticity proving so, again.

But just "Owned by Disney", "Owned by NASA", "Won on The Price is Right", doesn't magically make the item priceless!!!

Hell, I have a number of computers that were owned by AT&T/Pacific Northwest Bell/US West/Qwest, but they're not worth anything more than any other model of that computer...

I have computers that were owned by a church, does that make them worth something as well?

I've got an AppleDesign keyboard that was once owned by Telstra. I wonder if its worth anything...

I have Photoshop 2.5 AMD backup installer disks that my dad found in a trash bin there ten years ago.
