Just before I bought mine in December of 87, the price was reduced by $500 meaning they tossed the monitor in for free. The external drive was $125 and I forget the price of the expanded chip RAM...$125 I think. But around here there lots of discounts if you bought a complete system. Most prices were quoted as CPU, Monitor, RAM, and one external disk. Dana Bourgeois @ Cup.Portal.Com "that's my two cents"
