    Got ya! That makes more sense that it was the hard drive and not the tower! Was it a 8 gig drive also?

    Have you ever seen the pic with a bunch of alpha kits destroyed.


    What I meant by someone installing windows is if some got one of these kits and had no idea what they had then why not throw windows on it,I've seen it before.

    I contact this guy a few weeks ago when he first listed it. Very firm on his $1000 asking price. Too bad too seeing as I am 10 minutes away from his place so I would definitely save on shipping.

    I have several saved Ebay listings of COMPLETE ones selling for $1k. I should send him pictures of them. See what he says.

    It is rare, thus it is extremely valuable.

    He might find a sucker at some point willing to buy this thing. And I pity them.

    I saw this a few weeks back when it was posted. Funny that he is so firm on his $1000 when he got it for free and the case is all gutted and scratched up.

    I think he is delusional enough to actually believe what he is saying. Or he is really hoping some schmuck won't bother to hit up google and check this thread.

    I don't understand people who don't budge on price, you want to sell it or not? :/

    I offered a few hundred dollars in cash, in person, across the street from him at a Seattle Police Department station. I received a message back of "$1000 firm". Oh well, other fish in the sea.

    I plan on visiting Seattle at some stage in my life, maybe in the next few years. This guy will still have it lol.

    Honestly, he's a dickhead for not lowering the price. It's a case, and no one with a fully functioning brain will hand over $1000 in cash for a case. On the other hand I'd be tempted for the Chrome X case :)
