A little off topic but; Speaking of game day jerseys worn by the quarterback, How about a bandanna used by Mick Jagger In a concert in the Brendan Byrne arena back in 1981, sweat and all! Sent from: My extremely complicated, hand held electronic device.

My opinion is the same as yours, but my guess would be that owning Steve's Mac, or a game-day jersey worn by your team's quarterback, or a screen-used prop from your favorite movie, could give the owner a sense of personal connection to Jobs, the quarterback, or the star of their favorite movie.

I do not understand the element of "woo" that some people attach to objects used by other individuals.
I'm talking about this auction:

A Macintosh SE estimated to go for between $200,000 and $300,000, just because Steve Jobs touched it?
This is my opinion, and I don't need to be convinced otherwise. If your opinion differs, I would be interested in any reasoning.
