	Note to all who may be considering this:
	Wait for it! With the release of the new Mac'040 machines
(expected in October) Apple will be announcing an upgrade path for 
Mac IIcx/i owners - the new '040 shares the same footprint/case as
the IIc? series, and thus an upgrade from a IIcx will be a tasty proposition.

	Prices on the IIci should drop, again, with the announcement.
	See recent MacLeak (i.e. MacWeek) issues for details.
