[GreenKeys] M35 in Southern New Hampshire (Craigslist, $1)

Tue Nov 7 11:39:59 EST 2017

Has anyone called to see what the “20+ year old computers” might be? 
I’m somewhat interested in the M35 but am on the other coast and it would be next summer before I could make a trip to pick it up.

When they list stuff like this for "$1",  is that literally the price, or just a teaser aka "bait and switch" where the actual price will be negotiated once a prospective buyer expresses interest?
