	You mention nowhere that COMMODORE promised you anything.
Just because people on this newsgroup said something doesn't mean
it is true. You should make sure you get an official response
from a Commodore employee or, barring that, from your dealer. The
new Agnus is NOT being placed in A500s. The answer is to get a 2000.

	There is a new price list dated March 1 which should
clear up much of the confusion. As soon as I get it I'll post it.
There was a 1 month period of confusion but that should now be
over. Paul Calkin now has a price list that he wants, rather than
what the prior education boss wanted.
