And, in anyone is interested in the cipher side there is a group using 
distributive computing to break some of the original messages.
Interesting stuff, considering that the messages were sent in hand cw 
between the machines.

Although there were literally thousands of Enigma
machines produced during the 1930s and until shortly
before the end of World War II, the vast majority have
definitely been destroyed.

Like certain models of amateur radio equipment that
are desired by collectors this machine is going to
definitely have a "following".  There are collectors
out there who specialize in things like this who also
have a considerable amount of "extra" money to spend.

I certainly cannot afford it, but thre are going to be
a "fair" number of people out there who can afford the
price.
