Yes, that was me. I found several places where the price came out about the same, but I ended up buying from Tri-State Computer in NY. Their price in April was $439.95, or add $20 and get the Amiga cable also (their numbers were very screwy due to funky advertising, but that was the gist of it). With the cable and shipping it came to $477.90. It took them longer than I expected to deliver, and you might be better off trying someone else. OTOH you might want to give them a call, as I looked at their ad every month for three months, and the price kept going down each month; it might be lower now. Grab a current issue of Byte and look through the back for pricing. For Tri-State, the number is 800-221-1926. Oh, be advised you _don't_ get a tractor with this printer unless you order it. If anyone finds out where to buy a tractor inexpensively, please let me know! Rick
