I have had an eBay alert running for years that shoots an email to me whenever a new prototype Apple machine gets posted to eBay. A couple days ago, a PowerExpress prototype popped up. It's a bit spendy, though, and it's local pickup only. My guess is it won't sell.
Still, it's a very interesting machine. It appears to have the complete video subsystem (both capture and output including the DSUB-14 Mac monitor output), though it's missing whatever goes in the VCI slot. I can't tell from the pictures if the ROM SIM or L2 cache is installed - it's one of those. It even has a engineering unit of the Goleta processor card. Those things are even rarer than the PowerExpress machines themselves.
Link for your gawking pleasure.
