I read in the San Francisco Chronicle that the Amiga is
begin cut in price by $500, is this true? is this just for package
deals (computer,monitor,memory) or is it an across the board cut in
prices. This means that a 256k Amiga w/ color monitor would run
~1295, or much closer to the 520/1040 st. Reactions anyone?

The price is only true for the 256K Amiga with built-in drive and color monitor. It seems like they have a warehouse full of color monitors and are looking to get rid of them, since most Amigoids have been acquiring Sony or other better-quality monitors. According to Commodore, this offer expires at the end of May, about when the overabundance should run out.

From: mkidwel@nswc-wo.ARPA Your information regarding price cuts for Amiga is correct. Local dealers are offering the equivalent of a 28% price reduction. If you purchase the basic A1000 (1295), they will throw in the Amiga RGB Monitor for FREE!
