I wouldn't make one of my worst enemy's use a DOS/ OS/2 machine. Saying the IBM PS/2 model 70 is less than a Mac II is like saying a Diahatsu cost less than a BMW. Have you included the cost of 256 color card in that price, and the networking card since the mac has Appletalk built in, how about the additional FPU, ect... -- David M.
