I'm sure this has been asked before, but I've only been reading the
comp.sys.amiga newsgroup for a little while now. What I would like is full
information as to Commodore supported student discounts. In particular, I
am interested in pricing information on the: Amiga 500, Amiga 2000, and
in all configurations of the Amiga 3000. Also, are these discounts likely
to be a permanent feature or a "get 'em while you can" sort of deal?
Thanx in advance.

It cost $3039, I think that's about $1000 off the list price. I'm not qualified to speak on other Amiga configurations, I'd talk to your local dealer, mine was very helpfull. George L.

Skank > Rebel Without a Clue Could you list _everything_ that comes in that package? Like, does that include the monitor? Also, what is the order time like? Or can I walk in with $3000 and walk out with the mean machine? Regards, Alan

In-Reply-To: message from BAXTER_A@wehi.dn.mu.oz A3000/25-50 25Mhz 68030/882 CPU, 2Mb RAM, 3.5" 880Kb FD, 40Mb HD, A1950 Color Multiscanning Monitor, AmigaVision Multimedia Authoring Enviroment... There is the package. $3039.00 + $15.00 shipping and you'll be a VERY happy A3000 owner. BUT... Rumor has it the A3000's are backordered in the thousands, so be prepared for a little wait. I know of two people who purchased A3000's on the educational pricing program and recieved them withing a months time. Commodore is pushing its educational program very hard. It seems as though they educational packages have a priority shipping. As far as the price tag... You can't beat it! -Clayton
