At one time, I owned the very first SparcBook 1 that was ever sold to 
the public.  Bought it from a professor in California who bought it 
right as they came out; he found out that he was the VERY FIRST PERSON
to order one (from his sales guy).

I used it for a month or so, then sold it to a friend (after I bought a
SB3; the SB1 was too proprietary and really kinda unusable).  About a
year later, he had it in a friend's garage, and a motorcycle fell on it. 8-(
