Hi Grant,

Thanks for the reply. I'm a little disappointed that there's not much effect on the price. However, if there's a big effect on the labor required on your part, and if a significant number of people just wanted the case, you might be able to produce more, faster.

I hadn't considered the resale value, and I wouldn't venture to guess. Have Altair replicas been sold on eBay? How do their prices compare to original Altairs? If a person is going to put a PC in the Altair case, does he care about resale? After all, every time he upgrades his PC, he'd just take the old components out and put new ones in.

The big question, of course, is how many people would like their modern PC to look like an Altair? The secondary question is, where does the CD drive go?

- Bob
