Do not forget that the above includes a great Multisync monitor, AmigaVision and Wordperfect, all todether. A 1yr. waranty. To say that the TT gives a 1/3 speed increase to non-030 code is a joke! On a A2500/030 people get a 8.7-9.2 times the speed of a stock A2000 increase, it is only larger on an A3000. And don't forget all the networking cards.... Apple Talk? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! dw
