>When and where will be celebrated the funeral ceremonies? Funeral Services are not yet announced but there will be a moment of Silence observed by Collectors Worldwide in honor of the R40 now is not the time for finger pointing but i can promise you this.. once the proper respects have been paid to the R40 there will be a full investigation as to the exact cause of defect and the circumstances surrounding it. even now there is talk about setting up an independent world body to conduct surprise audits of those collectors that have the priviledge and honor of holding very rare computers not for run of the mill common computers such as a 6126 Phantom but for the very rare..the Creme De La Creme.. the R40'S ,the TSB IV'S the Bogol 5.0's current owners of these computers have a MORAL obligation to watch over these relics for current and future generations they do not belong to only one Collector but to all Collector's. current holders of the rarest computers have paid for the luxury to hold it currently in their safe watch but not to mistreat and destroy much like current owners of masterpieces in art who are not permitted to destroy Van Gogh's or Picasso's..current owners of the most rare computers must answer to some "higher authority" if there has been mistreatment there is even some talk about prohibiting just anyone from buying a very rare computer yes i think the days where just any retired pensioner living on a Govt Pension with a fist full of dollars can just walk up and purchase the rarest computer..will come to an end but for now.. we mourn our Loss SBO
