Thanks for the tip, MacJunky.
Personal opinion (if I may)- I think this thread is done. Nobody wants to spend $25k on a transparent-case Mac (although, realistically, who would?) and the $10k "museum" only appears to draw out the worst in us (but it's probably too close to tell/judgmental). Which begs two questions: what are people willing to spend on a single/group of Macs & for how long are they going to remain committed to their hobby? And if this has been answered/discussed before, my apologizes, as I have only been a member on this forum for nearly 3 months.
