Seems to be an anti-rumour of something I heard when the Amiga first hit
the market.  It seems "business" machines  must be priced >$1500 or they
don't classify as business.  The Amiga was artificially inflated at first
so that CBM *COULD* sell it as a business machine.  
	At least that is what I heard about a year ago...
