discounting program that will entice more students into dropping $4000 into
an atari as opposed to picking up a NeXT 68040 for a mere $3200 after discount?
Representatives from Atari at the WAACE Atarifest skirted the topic specifically
however, I would like to get the real scoop from someone competent. Has anyone
heard about this or seen anything PRINTED <not vaporware>?? With Commodore,
Apple and NeXT offering %40 discounts to students an institutions, how do
they expect anyone to be interested into jumping into our world of TOS??
