    Good to see somebody make corrections to the original fictional list, 
    but I'm curious about a few of these:

       I thought the 3000 could address something like 16 Gig, or are we
       stuck with ONLY 256M  ;)

       What about all the networking options that CBM announced at the same
       time as the 3000? They sounded like the tools that are needed to
       compete with the PC and MAC (and yes, even the Atari).
