[comp.sys.zenith] Looking for a $300 Minisport?

djo7613@hardy.u.washington.edu (Dick O'Connor) (03/12/91)

I can't use one myself, but I noted last weekend that the ZDS Bulletin Board
(called "COM1") is having a members-only new equipment sale featuring 
the discontinued Minisport and all imaginable accessories.  For example, 
2MB Minisports are $299, 10-pack of 2" disks are $19, etc.  These sales
are open only to H/Z User's Group members, but are one of the major 
advantages of joining the group.  If you've thought about it before,
this may be reason enough to send in your $22.95!  Below I've appended a
list of the current sale items, followed by information on How To Become
A Member.  Membership *does* have its privileges.

Disclaimer: just a satisifed member who'd like the see the Group GROW!
