    Unless you're offering a potato, in which case I'd prefer you not PM me at all. I hate potatoes.

    I'd say it's worth $500 tops. Probably far less as it's missing the unique controller that was pre-changes.

    Say $300 on bad day.

    Not that anyone is particularly concerned, but I did end up getting $1000 for it on eBay. I think that, with a $350 graphics card, 16GB of RAM, a hybrid drive, wireless capability and the novelty of having a numbered test system that over 200,000 people applied to receive, it was a pretty reasonable price.

    Thanks for your feedback, (mostly) everyone!

    I found the prototype (rev 3) controller. Comes the steam box with one or two of this babys?
    Nice teardown link btw, thanks.
