     I cannot believe what I'm hearing!  Commodore doesn't do enough
 advertising, we all agree?  Advertising is hard when you charge just
 above cost for your product, and then they turn around and offer incredible
 trad-ins for older machines and extremely low prices for college students!
 What is the resonce on the net?  You guys want to trad-in your 1000s for
 2000s at student discount prices!  And now you're mad because Commodore's
 excelent student discount doesn't fit your exact needs!

     I'm at a loss.  I believe the intent of the student discount was to
 get more machines on campuses.  Know what?  It's doing just that!  I
 suppose it's in the Amiga mentality to want it all, but let's not get
 greedy.  We alreay have it much better than everyone else.
