     Sorry, but you are being greedy.  Think of if you had bought a Mac Plus
 instead of an A1000.  A worse computer, for more money, and no upgrade.
 Or, god forbid, a 512k Mac (or 128k Mac!).

     Most computer companies would tell you "Your computer is outdated, so
 EAT IT!"  Commodore could save a lot of money by ignoring A1000 owners.
