WHAAAAT? If I have read other posts in these newsgroups correctly,
this is more like the price for a CDTV!? Why would anybody want to
pay so much for the drive, if they could get the CDTV(with an Amiga in it)
for the same money? Surely, you are kidding? Or is the CDTV more 
expensive than I thought?
