The price is only true for the 256K Amiga with built-in drive and color
monitor.  It seems like they have a warehouse full of color monitors and
are looking to get rid of them, since most Amigoids have been acquiring
Sony or other better-quality monitors.  According to Commodore, this offer
expires at the end of May, about when the overabundance should run out.
