At the presentation given by Apple reps today, they said that although we would be able to order LCs after 11/15/90, they didn't expect delivery until late January/early February. They also said the current price for the LC would be $1,517, but they were hoping to push that down another $50-$100 (possible before the start of order-taking) -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Evan Torrie.
