Hi there, I have the following TOPS products for sale. All the products are still in their shrink wrapping except for the demo products. Demos are opened, but have all original pieces in good condition. The "demo" products are fully working, but have a "demo, not for resale" sticker on them. The products are: Number Item List Price Asking Price ------ ---- ---- ----- ------ ----- 2 TOPS Flashcard (PC) $239.95 $120.00 2 TOPS Flashcard Demos $100.00 $ 75.00 3 TOPS Mac Version $249.95 $125.00 1 TOPS Mac Demo $100.00 $ 75.00 2 TOPS PC Version $189.00 $ 90.00 2 TOPS PC Demo $100.00 $ 75.00 2 TOPS NetPrint (PC) $189.00 $ 50.00 3 TOPS Teleconnect (DB-9) $ 59.00 $ 30.00 2 TOPS Teleconnect (DIN-8) $ 59.00 $ 30.00 I run a small computer consulting firm, and I have decided to not carry TOPS anymore. I really want to clear out my inventory, so I will even pay for shipping if you buy three or more products. I have data sheets, etc. if anyone needs them, and I will gladly field any question about TOPS. If you are interested, I may be reached at (716) 889-3528 or thru the net.

One of the reasons the products down at your local Egghead or Software Etc. cost so much is crap like this: companies give away (or sell at marginal cost) equipment and software, only to have some bozo turn around and sell it. The author/manufacturer loses a possible sale, the store loses a possible sale, and some crook makes some fast bucks. Hey, I need a hard disk --- got any that you "just happened to find"? -- James S.
