 At UW it's:

Mac Classic			$1166
Mac Classic 2/40		$1727

Mac LC 2MB Superdrive		$1844
Mac LC 2MB 40MB HD		$2305

Mac IIsi 2Mb 40HD		$3477
Mac IIsi 5MB 80MB HD		$4215

As noted before, even including rate of exchange, there's an extra
couple hundred of bucks not accounted for. Love this free trade. :-)

N.B. The LC and IIsi have curved fronts so that if you place a monitor
on top of them, you get a flush(?? forgive my english, 4yrs of
engineering hasn't helped) surface.
