Apple Fans Bidding on Autographed 1st Issue of Macworld

Craigtay writes "Some Apple fans are opening their wallets to buy an old magazine, but not just any old magazine. This first edition of Macworld, which was released in 1984 (and apparently contains an interview with Bill Gates), is signed by Steve Jobs. The bidding is currently above the $2,000 mark. News.com has done a news story here and click here for the eBay page." Thats ummm.... special? It amuses me that the reserve isn't met yet either. ;)

bidding is currently above the $2,000 mark.

So what? People who are willing to pay $1000 for a Mac can surely pay $2000 or more for something with some real use (ex., in a toilet paper shortage you could wipe your ass with Bill Gates' face, that's like an instant +50 karma)...
