( Another 512K and a real time clock. ) I can't see you being able to get the base unit for less than $600 so if you are really lucky you might find it for $595. Hedley

Apparently this place has been very reliable with their prices/shipping/etc... Now, who knows, maybe when they do actually recieve the machines they might push the price upto $600... (But they do have deals like the $870 2 Meg Starboard expansion for $430!) In either case I've got a bunch of friends eagerly waiting for this little beast, even if they get it for $649.
