Was there more than one Apple 1 for sale?  The one mentioned on this list on
July 21 was withdrawn with no bids.  (Although the seller, Steve Fish,
happily answers his email.)

Speaking of the Apple 1, I just noticed the winning bidder is the same guy
who bought that "hobby computer in a wooden case" that was the subject of
such wild speculation a few weeks back.  He also bought an NRI 832, which I
have heard claimed to predate the Kenbak and be in fact the first computer
kit ever marketed. 
Does anyone know the real scoop on that?
