Discount? Some of us poor students can't afford to buy everything at ONCE. But once we buy our CPU/Bundle we have to pay full retail for any future expansions we might want. Sure, I'd LOVE to be able to buy my A500 _and_ Hard Drive _and_ RAM expansion _and_ monitor all at once, but I can't afford that. How about some kind of deal for peripherals? -- Matt *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* % "I programmed three days % Beam me up, Scotty. % % And heard no human voices. % There's no Artificial % % But the hard disk sang." % Intelligence down here. % % -- Yoshiko % % E-mail: mrush@cscihp.ecst.csuchico.edu % *~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~* This is a SCHOOL!
