Fresh from the omnipresent `reliable source,' I have garnered the following
hot and spicy rumor (so good, it's bad):  Commodore has, ready for sale, a
de-interlacer/scan doubler for the 2000/2500.  Price $295.  I honestly trust
the source, who says he recalls the name of the beast to be the A2320 (but
that could be incorrect).  He even called someone at C= to verify this rumor
when he heard it, and was told it was available a couple of days ago.  He was
further informed that it did not take up the video slot, though the way it
avoided this was unclear.

Anyone care to (respond to|back up|refute|complain about) this?  I would be
fairly happy were this the case.  The price seems close to reasonable,
depending on the street price, and I guess it will go on the educational
discount list.  But, is it correct that I cannot buy this board through the
ed. program alone, that one must purchase a CPU with any order?  I did buy
my computer through the ed, program, but I did so months ago.  If this is the
policy, has a decent explanation of it been given?

Inquiring minds and all that jazz,
