The price seems to be quite attractive: for a 1 Mbyte, one 1.2M floppy, AT style keyboard monochrome system, it was selling between $2,995 ( Performance Systems, 24195 Wright Drive, Hayward, CA 94545, tel: 415-785-4181 ) to $3,995. The demo showed it has Norton SI = 20.4, looks like a good deal if someone wants a high speed yet affordable AT compatible machine. Considering the new 8086 based IBM Model 30 color system with 20M hard disk is $3,095. Does anybody have experience about that machine ? Any suggestions, comments or recommendations ??
