And its a diskless, fanless SPARC workstation - not much good for the home user without a server, eh. I'll look up the prices for a MacIIic, the average 386 PC (33 MHz, 4MBRam, colour VGA and >=48MB hd) and keep you posted about their price. Maybe I can even find out what an Amiga 3000 costs. On the whole I think we'll soon see the TT in the mentioned configuration for less that 7000 DM. And that's a pretty good offer. Power without the price is one thing. You always have to show a profit, though, as you've said yourself often enough. So long.
