		gorbypark on Sept 15, 2024 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: AT&T's Hobbit Microprocessor (2023) I dream of owning one of those one day! I was a huge BeOS fan as a teenager, and even though the BeBox was from before my time I’d love to own one! They very very rarely seem to come up for sale, though. And the ones that do are pretty crazily priced..

IIRC there were only ~1000 66MHz and ~800 133Mhz BeBoxes produced.

In comparison, I'd be curious as to how many, say, SGI O2s were ever produced in total.

I have one. What would you consider a reasonable price?

Of course it depends on the model and the condition, but somewhere around or under 5-600 euros?
