Message-ID: <1991May01.053107.11013@ariel.unm.edu> Date: 1 May 91 05:31:07 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: University of New Mexico, Albuquerque Lines: 15 Just to let you know, Commodore is having a special promotion until 6/30/91, on A-3000s. If you bring in the top page of your owner's manual with the serial number of your C-64 or A-1000 or A-500 or A-2000, these are the prices: A-3000 16MHz 68030/68881 $1849.00 A-3000 25MHz 68030/68882 $2249.00 (both have 50Mbyte HardDrives) similar savings on the 100Mbyte model Now, if you consider how much it would cost to get a stock A-2000 and add an accelerator card, 2 Mbyte chip ram, 32bit DMA SCSI controller, and flicker- fixer....... well, I think you get the idea. The A-3000s have been selling like hotcakes in my neck of the woods! As a personal recommendation, consider buying the 16 MHz version and saving your hard earned cash for the next generation 68040 cards WITH cache. Remember that 200 pin connector on the A-3000? Can you say AFFORDABLE 20 MIPS ??! :)
