  You are right, i am wrong, i hope. No the machine i am mentioning 
is not the Mythical Next beast. But it is probably gonna end 
up being mythical anyway. I hope they can stick to that price, it 
will for sure kill the Mac II (one hopes- but then Apple's lawyers
may kill the Mac II first) and it should sell Amigas. Sure wish 
C= does OK here. 
   How about an Amix that can run diskless, or without hard disk? 
How much would that be?
   BTW I am another A1000/NO EHB owner who bought an A500. I also used 
to use an 11/70 for what that's worth. I like both machines, and intend
to buy more machines from C=. So There.
