Is this true? >Thanks in advance :-) > The Educational Discount Program has changed. You can now buy peripherals without buying a CPU. Either you asked your dealer before it changed, or he doesn't know about it. With the change in the program, you have to pay sales tax, but you get the merchandise right then and there from the dealer's stock. The last Ed. Price I saw for an A1950 was about $500. This will ultimately be up to your dealer, though. >Kevin >st101883@brownvm Wayne Rigby Computer and Systems Engineer (in training) Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute metahawk@rpi.edu
