Lines: 26 I recently posted a request about Hard Drive options available for the 2000, specifically, I was interested in a 2000HD vs a 2000 with a third party controller/drive setup. If anybody is interested in a summary, write me and I will send you a copy. I am very much interested in combining a Microbotics HardCard and a Quantum 11ms 40 HD, but one reply had mentioned a possible bug in the first release. I was curious if anyone had this board, was certain of any bugs or knew of a revision being planned. Last, but far from least, I am a student here a good old Rutgers College. I heard that WordPerfect had a student discount plan, and the on campus computer store here sells IBM PS/2's and MAC's at cost. Unfortunately, they are not currently offering Amigas. I was curious whether a Student Discount Plan might be available, or if any attempts were being made to introduce Amigas to College computer centers? Also, does Commadore offer any any financing options? It seems the college market would be important to Commadore, as the system a person begins with is often the system he stays with. I esp want to hear from our man in Commadore about this one. -- "Run, Run, as fast as you can, you cant catch me, Im the gingerbread man" "Lets do some crimes.
