How's this: TT030, 4M, 50M HD, with Color Monitor - $2680
Subtract about $500 without Color Monitor.  I believe that you can also
get the 2M TT030 for just under $2000.  A 4M model includes 2M of ST
RAM on the motherboard plus another daughterboard with 2 more Meg.  One 
can expand this ST RAM daughterboard to 10 M.  The fast TT RAM includes 
another daughterboard with 1M Sims to add another 4M to make a TT030
8M model.  Remove the 1M Sims from this TT daughterboard and replace 
them with 4M Sims to expand TT RAM to 16M.  Result total RAM = 10 +
16 = 26M.  I was told today from a dealer here in the Chicago area that
these RAM expansion boards will be ready for sale around mid June here.
