In the official messages left by Commodore on PLink detailing the
products and prices available under the Commodore Educational Program,
there was a statement that the prices for individual components were
not available unless accompanied by a system or CPU.
Does this mean I have to sell my present system, and get a new one,
in order to get, say, the A2024 monitor under the Commodore Educational
Program?
After getting used to the large, high-resolution, monochrome
displays of the workstations at school, it would be nice to have such
a display on my system at home. But I do not want to have to purchase
a new system to get it.

Under the program, as announced, this is indeed the case. Individual peripherals must be purchased in conjunction with a CPU or package. There was a brief period where current owners were able to by peripherals under the old educational program, but that ended on 31 March 1990. We can only hope that Commodore might decide to offer this option again. -- ******************************************************************************* Jeff Schweiger Standard Disclaimer CompuServe: 74236,1645 Internet (Milnet): schweige@cs.nps.navy.mil *******************************************************************************
