Marlene: It is a real dilemma. I'm not the only being very careful about plunking down another considerable amount of cash for another CBM machine… I still remember that eternal wait for decent software. This time I know it's going to be the same thing for the hardware! Hardware that was supposed to be available for the A1000. I've already seen one price reduction on the A2000. Either a price reduction or a well priced package. CBM did the same thing with the A1000. I was one of the first; paying top dollar. What do you think will happen with pricing on the A2000. Bragging about a dual processor machine running essentially the low end of each processor line is a weak corporate line. The 'XT' card should have been a bare bones 'AT'. With the advent of '386' machines the 'xt' is dead! The 'AT' will drop in price and the A2000 will be yesterday's muscle car. CBM need to bring out a '68020' card (competitively priced vs. CSA's) and an 'AT' card for the IBM side. Then watch out. Noone will hesitate. And that's my dilemma. What is CBM upto!! regards: Michael PS: the kids can wait! daddy's paying for it!
