Interesting. It could be a scammer or it could be someone who found the computer in his garage, looked it up on the Internet and blindly took that value is Gospel thinking that that's the amount they are going for. They probably think that they just hit the jackpot. They may be out of their mind, uninformed or just plane stupid/gullible.

But, like you said, anyone who would buy it at that price would also be in one of the above categories.
