Late followup in this thread: here is the
Christie's auction for items
being auctioned off:

Many of the bids are underwhelming. KA-10 for $300, KI-10 for $400, KS-10 for $400.
Somebody wants the IBM 7090, bid $11,000 but still well below the $40-$60K estimate,
and somebody really wants the CDC 6500, bid $160,000.
All plus packing and shipping from Seattle, of course.
