I saw the deal too, about the VIC 20, CBM 64, Amiga 1000/2000/3000 upgrade deal. Shoot, I bought my Amiga 3000 (16/50) after selling my amiga 2000 off to some blood sucker. On student deal I got the piece of sh*t. And that is exactly what it is, 2.0 is a gas, only 10% of the software I have works with it. The acceleration isn't all that noticeable (unless you use 2.0). The hard drive is alright, and pretty fast but where the f*ck is that 68040 upgrade. Fellow student deal buyers, Commodore is screwing us. Screwing the general public too. The worse part about the deal (from a once optimistic view-point now turned evil) is that you get to keep your old computer. This is one outrageously funny deal, they are even offering this crap to VIC 20 users. I wonder if the deal includes the multi-scan (cost me 600 dollars). I'm buying a NeXT or IBM 486. To hell with you Commodore. And I know your employees and lines are on these networks. If I could sue you I would.
