Also, can you save extra >money if you have more than one Commodore computer? > The discounts are the same no matter what you use to upgrade (VIC 20 -> A2500). It only depends on what you're buying. So if you get an A3000-25/100 and you power up with a VIC 20, you'll get $1500 off. The same if you use a C64, C128, A500, & A2x00. Now the second question is an intrigueing one (I happen to have a C64 and 2 C128s - can we say $3500 off?) I've been trying to get Commodore via 1-800-66-AMIGA, but all I've gotten is a recording saying basically call 1-800-448-9987, where no one has picked up the phone, yet. Myself, I think it's probably limited to a different CPU per trade up, ie you have 3 C64s, you can get 3 A3000-25/1000s with $1500 off on each, but I've seen nothing in any of the literature from CBM stating this, or anything else about multiple systems. If anyone finds out what the policy is, please post! >Laura >-- >Laura A.
