Vice News September 25th 2018
(cross-posed to cctalk, vcf-midatlantic, and AHCS lists) Imagine my surprise when I was catching up on my daily Vice News diet today - watching today's and yesterday's episodes - when VCF Mid-Atlantics's own Corey Cohen, InfoAge, and a VCFed banner popped up! They did a story on an auction house and verification of an original Apple 1 board up for sale. They called on Corey and his expertise to verify the condition of the board! Way to go Corey! If you want to check out the segment, I've hosted it here: https://www.atlhcs.org/links/Vice_Apple_Auction.ts Enjoy! -Alan H.
Indeed, one of the guys at our local makerspace asked if I knew Corey after he'd read the article! Thanks, Jonathan On Thu, Sep 27, 2018 at 2:20 AM alan--- via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

I get that question about Connor a lot. "Hey have you heard of" ... ummmm yes. :) Here's a (shorter) video from the auction house: https://youtu.be/uW6-r0Lms6A On Thu, Sep 27, 2018, 8:16 AM systems_glitch via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:

Congrats Corey! Now if Crays would go thermonuclear in value like Apple 1s... - Ethan
Well if you had a complete Cray-1 or Cray-2 that worked it would be worth more than an Apple-1. I know someone who traded his complete Cray-1 for an Apple-1, personally I’d have kept the Cray and used it in my living room as a sofa. corey cohen uǝɥoɔ ʎǝɹoɔ Mobile: +1 917 747 1408 Sent from my iPhone

That... is an interesting trade! That is a hardcore vintage computer collector! Crays are heavy. - Ethan
