At first, $241.38 for a computer that is not only nearly 20 years old, but that is—for all intents and purposes—fairly useless in the modern computing world, seems to be as absurd as a notion can get. The winning buyer will get a lot of functional software and games that will remain fun to play (Gnarly Golf!), but he won't get photo and video editing. He won't get broadband Internet access. He'll barely even get a hard drive (16MB! 1278K RAM!). What he will be getting is nostalgia, and that says something about Apple that many people miss.
