[net.micro] All-time low VIC-20 Price

nrf (04/03/83)

Competition between firms selling inexpensive home computers is really getting
hot!  Note that Sinclair just anounced their color computer, and the price of
VIC-20's has dropped to $99 retail.  <although this might be a plug, thhe
store with that price is 'Child World'.  they are not the only store seling
C-65's for $400.

I cannot remember which store this was from, (one of the local
department stores, maybe Sears) but I recently (sunday) saw an
ad which listed the VIC-20 at $74.  This was probably a special
sale.
