You misunderstood the ad.  $5475 is the price for a complete "Turbo
Amiga" which includes an Amiga, a CSA expansion box, the 14 MHz
68020/68881 board, 1 MB (or 2?) extra memory, and a 20 MB hard disk.
The expansion box alone is only $995.
     I have no connection with CSA--just wanted to set the record
straight.
