No, virginia, it is not true.  Have your dealer call CBM or his
distributor and order them.  While I'm at it, please watch your
favorite BBS for new uploads of the C64 and C128 versions of the
RAMdisk.  QuantumLink, GEnie, and Plink should have them by the
end of this week.

> Does this mean that we'll be seeing an end to support for the 128?

Nope.  You just have to know where to look for it, 'cause it's not
going to pop up and bite you on the bottom.  The more you make your
presence known, the more attention you will receive- not only from
CBM but from the hardware and software developers whose support is
the real key to any system's longevity.
