[comp.sys.amiga] A3000 purchase

vervalin@AUSTIN.LOCKHEED.COM (Paul Vervalin) (10/26/90)

Well I went to my local dealer today to get an A3000 using the educational 
discount, and when I (like an impatient father) expressed some concern over 
having to wait two or three weeks before getting it was told that a deal
could be worked where I could get it sooner.  I am interested in the 
25Mz/100Mb version which just recently started coming with 5Megs of memory 
instead of 2Megs.  But, he only has the "older" versions with 2Megs.  The 
bottom line is after some RAM swapping, etc... I will end up with a machine 
with 5 or maybe 6 Megs of memory.  This is all fine an dandy but do I really 
want one of the "older" A3000s?  Have there been any motherboard revisions in 
the past month or so?  Is there anything that I should be wary of concerning
the purchase of one of the earlier version A3000s.  I'm waiting to decide, 
hopefully based on responses from this post.  So please if you know anything 
let me know.  Thanks in advance...
