        Hi,

           First let me say that I'm glad to hear from you. My Mac and
        other hardware where purchased in November 1987, are still in 
        excellent condition. I'd like to say that these have been my
        pride and joy, and I have treated them as such. I'm selling my
        Mac because I want to buy a bigger Mac. I would like to get a
        Mac II with an 80Mb hard drive, 8Mb ram, and a color monitor. A
        Mac IIe maybe? Thanks to Uncle Sam and the IRS, I'm half way
        there now. If I can sell my present system, then I should attain
        my goal. I can provide copies of any receipts you might need.
        Now down to business, here's what I have:

        Macintosh SE with dual 800k floppies and 1 Mb RAM
        Extended Keyboard
        Imagewriter II
        Macintosh to Imagewriter Cable
        All Manuals 

        Price: $2400.00

           I'm selling the Mac for about list, but I'm also throwing in
        the Extended Keyboard, Imagewriter II and Cable for free. I will
        of course include the Mouse. Your saving approximately $195.00 
        for the Extended Keyboard, $495.00 for the Imagewriter II, and 
        $25.00 for the Cable, not to mention the sales tax which would 
        otherwise be included. See Below For More Savings.



        Prodigy 4 SE - 16Mhz 68020/68881 Accelerator with 4Mb of Fast RAM
        All Manuals
        Mac Snap Toolkit
 
        Price: 1995.00

           This accelerator has been reviewed in several major Macintosh
        publications including: Mac World, and Mac User. You will also 
        find a review listed in BYTE. In almost every CPU intensive task
        put to it, the Prodigy out performed both the Macintosh II, and
        the Radius Accelerator. It contains 4Mb of Fast RAM which will 
        be upgradable to 32Mb as soon as 4Mb chips are available. The 
        Prodigy 4 SE has an additional slot available for adding the 
        Motorola 68851 Memory Management Unit, which is required for
        Apple's version of UNIX, and for any truly Multitasking MacOS
        down the road. The Prodigy occupies the Mac SE's internal
        expansion slot, and includes an adapter which will allow you to 
        add a larger monitor at a later date.

           Additionally, the Prodigy includes software for creating a
        RamDisk, and for turning the 68020 instruction cache, and 
        SANE-to-68881 options on and off, this provides you with 100%
        compatability with non-accelerated Macs. I love this accelerator
        so much, that I could never force myself to go back to a 
        "plain vanilla" Mac SE again.  
 
           If you work with MultiFinder, or Hypercard, then you will 
        certainly enjoy the additional RAM that the Prodigy can provide.
        If you have "Falcon", by Spectrum Holobyte, as I do, then you
        will truly come to appreciate being able to load this 1.6Mb F-16
        simulator into your RamDisk and running it in real time.
   
           The Prodigy is sold by SuperMac direct to dealers, so you 
        could not purchase it at a lower price than this. All manuals
        are included, and installation is a snap. I will throw in the
        Mac Snap tools needed to crack open your Mac and install the
        Prodigy, (a $20.00 savings).



           If your interested in purchasing my Macintosh system or the
        Prodigy accelerator, then this is what I propose:

           You tell me where you live, and I will have the packages 
        weighed by my local UPS. I will then send you a VAXMail message
        informing you of the shipping, insurance, and COD charges.

           You send me a Money Order to cover these charges, and I will
        then UPS Ground everything up to your address. You will need 
        Money Orders totaling the remaining balance. I will absorb the 
        cost of the Shipping, COD, and Insurance. We will simply deduct
        that from the price of the system.
