I'd imagine that it would be worth the seller's time to take the disk out
of the Walt, try and mount it on a Mac to see if there are any files to
get off it. It very likely runs a copy of MacOS 7 or 8 something, and has
some extensions and custom apps, if those apps/extensions are accessible,
then reinstalling the OS and replacing those could produce a working
WALT. And that would be worth a lot more than a broken one.
