I have a question for you then... How does a college student purchase an
Apple IIGS?  The college bookstore on campus sells plenty of Mac's for a
small discount (less than other bookstores), but refuses to even consider
selling an Apple IIGS.  Several of my friends are interested in the GS, but
refuse to pay the overpriced retail cost.  IF the bookstore sold the IIGS
with an educational discount I'm sure they'd probably buy it.  WHY isn't
the Apple IIGS included in college bookstores?  The demand *IS* there...
