	First off. You don't know what you are talking about. The $1000 systems
which people are buying in computer stores includes a disk drive and
monitor. The retail store price for the 520 ST is the same as the
computer store price.
	
	Secondly. If you are going to sell a computer at a low price then you
are going to have to do a large volume (just like any other product). If
you want to pay huge margins when you buy a computer then go ahead. You
can feel really proud of your self, because you bought it at a computer
store.
