'83, for CompuShop, (formerly Computer 1). The ad offers a free PCjr when you buy a PC. The PC offered has 256K, 2 drives, monochrome display (IBM), monochrome display adapter, parallel printer adapter, dos 1.1, training in-store, and 90 day warranty. The PCjr has 64k memory, 12 months parts and labor warranty, serial port and training. In small (VERY SMALL) print the following appears: "The PCjr Entry Sysytem will be available in 1984. PCjr Entry System price of $689 may be applied to the PCjr enhanced version with a disk drive. Quantities will be limited. The quoted price for all the above(PC + PCjr Entry Sysyem) is $ 3801. Any takers? Any comments?
