Message-ID: <19954@sdcc6.ucsd.edu> Date: 31 May 91 18:10:07 GMT Sender: news@sdcc6.ucsd.edu Distribution: usa Organization: CSE Dept., UC San Diego Lines: 14 My brother recently purchased an A500P using the educational discount. I had encouraged him to make the purchase since I beleived that the educational discount would give him a savings of about 40%. He tells me that he only saved about 12% or so. Is the latest Educational Discount a lot worse then the older programs? I used to follow the pricing closely, but the last list I saw was distributed right when Howard Diamond left. The front panel on his 1084S fell off; but the dealer cheerfully replaced the monitor. He said it was not an uncommon problem. John -- John Lindwall lindwall@cs.ucsd.edu "Oh look at me!
