Well, at least you're prepared for that. :)

Hi all who inquired to me regarding my stock of Newtons,

Re: <http://www.1234zzzz.com/pub/Inventory.jpg>

Thank you for your sincere interest in my assemblage of Newts and
accessories.
Most of the stock is just that, "stock" 2x00 units, but in addition I do
have some very rare proprietary pieces as well as lots of original brand
accessories. Lots of original documentation, manuals, etc.
At the moment I'm not really ready to part with anything.
I have the collection so that over time I'll never be without!

Overkill perhaps, but as the clock continues to tick the law of entropy
affects not only the physical components of all things but the supplies
of viable units continues to shrink, thus my heavy-handed investment
over the years. If I loose a unit, or if it passes on to the great
Newton Gods in the sky, I simply restore from backups in a matter of a
few minutes and I'm up and running again.

Here's a few more interesting items in the collection:

The only situation I would remotely consider might be to sell off the
entire collection as one lot, or possibly doing something philanthropic,
but this is not likely unless I was ready to cut off my right arm ;-)

So, again, thanks for all the e-mails, but it may be a little while
<g>. Until then, if I can be of help just say the word as I do have
multiple sets of just about everything and if you're in a life and death
bind I'll send you my left arm, and maybe a piece of history ;-)

><----snipped----> picture you posted of your Newton collection. By any
>chance, would you be willing to part with <----snipped----> those
2100's. <----snipped----> am very serious about your large inventory.
<----snipped----> are you selling? <----snipped---->, etc.
