A thread should be started on this subject.  Here is my point: prices of used
Pluses are going to plummet to well under $500 when the Classic costing
$999.- retail, and God knows what on the street, comes out.  20MB 
hardrives external can be had for just over&under $300, and 20MB is just 
about all anyone who just needs a Plus or Classic, needs.  In other words,
with external floppy dirves costing $200 mail order, used Pluses will be 
priced to compete with Classic, and I can see no compelling reason to
spend more money on a Classic instead.  Can anyone give me any?  In particular,
instead of piling up scattered debating points on the net, can someone who
KNOWS post a table with Plus specs vs. Classic specs in two columns, so that	we all know what we are talking about?  Thanks.
