Re: [emax] Re: Celebrity Emaxes Where are they now?

paul wellars EII sold for only £180 as it did not load sounds as floppy was
broken but still even with famous peoples gear it dont sell that much

tears for fears EII library was just sold on ebay and it sold for £25 for 15
floppies now if there was a library to get hold of it would be dave stuarts from
eurythmics

True, however even to own a machine used by one of those people would still be
rather fantastic.

Even if it was a backup unit that didn't get used much. They went somewhere,
and I'm gonna find one! If I do, then I need to get it autographed!
