I found this info on old archived websites. There are several people that acctually collect these and one guy has posted pictures and well.. here is the result. As for looking one website with prices and changes it will be hard as most of the brand names (like the first post) have quit and most are clones. Therefore a computek computer vs a microtak would not be an unfair comparison.
