What is interesting is that no one has the orginal Apple iPhone 8K or
16K for sale anywhere.

What happened to them all? Are all the parts used to make them now
going into the new model?

8 or 16 _K_? Were these very early models based on the Apple II rather than
OS X? ;-)

Doesn't Apple recall dealer stocks instead of dumping and discounting on
all its product lines? Do the dealers dump the last model Macs to get rid
of them as the new model comes out, or do they scrap them so they can
demand full retail for the new models?

I don't recall ever seeing a big "Apple Sale" dumping old products....other
than used from the screwed customers.

I remember paying $200 for 16K of Ram back in 1980, and paying $300
for 1 Meg of Ram in 1987.

Discontinued models typically sold for 15% off, with Apple reimbursing
authorized dealers if memory serves correctly.

With a new 3G broadband iPhone up against the 2G model dragging along like
a snail, 15% would be simply stupid. I see why they're hiding them...(c;
