Howard Diamond loves replying to the net so I thought I'd give him a chance to post, but the rumors are getting out of hand. NON-EDUCATIONAL A3000s: All comes with 2MB ram and the MHz/HD as specified above. EDUCATIONAL A3000 BUNDLES: The BUNDLES come with the MHz/HD configurations as above. They all come with 2MB ram except for the 25/100 which has 5MB ram. When you walk into a store the standard A3000 25/100 comes with 2MB ram, it is only the educational discount bundle that has more memory. For $3,899 you get 5MB RAM, 100MB HD, 25MHz 68030/882 and the A1950 multisync monitor. -- Ethan Ethan Solomita: es1@cunixb.cc.columbia.edu *Iraq += *Kuwait; NumCountries--; and by popular demand... free(Kuwait);
