	Let me join the crowd of happy users of the Standard 286/10.
	I have one on my desk both at home and at work.  The price on 
	their 'Starter Kits' are difficult to beat.  For $2100 I can
	get a 286/10, 60M, EGA(w/screen), 512K AT compatible  WITH an LX-800
	printer.  A nice touch, I think, is that they throw in a 25
	to 25 extender cable, and 10 blank High Density disks.

	I've priced all the parts separatly and can't come near the price
	for the kit.  One thing to notice when buying- the serial board is 
	set up with two serial ports on it.  #2 costs $15 which includes 
	the chips and cable.

	I've been very impressed by Compu-Add's help on the phone, and 
	delivery time.

	Oh yeah, They offer a decent educational discount on individual
	parts.  In fact, most companies do, you just have to ask.

	Happy hunting!
