I remember I bought my A1000 back in June of 1986, just before the prices
fell for the first time.  I bought the A1000, 256k memory expansion, 1080
monitor, 5.25" disk drive with transformer, GraphicCraft, TextCraft, 
MindWalker, and 10 blank disks.  The regular price on the system was
$4200 Canadian, but luckily I was working for the University at the time
and my dealer had educational prices, so I got the system for $2500.  This,
of course, does not include tax.

BTW, I sold MindWalker with my A1000, does anyone have a copy they would like
to sell me?
