Here's how I arrived at that number: Manuals $650 Tape $650 ---- $1300 All seriousness aside, I now have a Mac II with 80 Mb disk, etc., which was purchased with A/UX in mind. Well, Apple, thanks for the memories! May this "marketing coup" join the Lisa and the Apple III in the annals of the history of computer marketing ludicrosity!
