Well, a reliable mail order place in Tennessee is already offering the 
Amiga 500 for $479.56. Apparently this place has been very reliable with
their prices/shipping/etc... Now, who knows, maybe when they do actually 
recieve the machines they might push the price upto $600...  (But they do
have deals like the $870 2 Meg Starboard expansion for $430!)

In either case I've got a bunch of friends eagerly waiting for this
little beast, even if they get it for $649.
