First, if this topic is too trivial for comp.sys.amiga, feel free
to singe me and I'll stop.

I really am gonna buy an Amiga.  My local dealer offers Amiga, 1080 Monitor,
512K, and 2 disks for $1499+6% sales tax.  This seems like a pretty good
price to me--anyone know where I can substantially beat it?

Should I get one disk and and more memory to start out?  (I know, I didn't tell
you what I'm gonna do with it.  To start with, simple word processing and
a lot of fooling around.)  I assume that the Alegra 512 upgrade is still
highly regarded, right?

What's Fred Fish's current address?  I need a good editor and vt100 emulation
to start out with.  Which disks are the latest goodies on?
Could someone send me the "catalog" of the disks so I can pick out
the neato demos that try to convince my friends that the Amiga is
an amazing machine?

I need a Prowriter driver.  I assume that I can at least crank out plain text
til I get this, right?

And, in case you missed it before--wanna sell me yours?
