Serial number 1143A XXXXX on the auctioned one seems *really early*, but to me at least, I wouldn't be surprised if there were some variation among ones at the very beginning. These early-run ones could have been used mostly internally. What serial number range would you have expected for a Red Dot?

What's wrong with the front label? It says "HEWLETT PACKARD" without the "35." Is there a subtlety I am missing?

Oh, just to confirm... You are going to the *original* auction and not the substitute one eBay sends you when you click the link after the auction close, correct? I hate how they do that now.
