I just saw this stuff on the atari newsgroup, could anyone explain these
prices. The educational price here at the U of A is about $1,000 more!
Can other people buy from here?

Do these prices include evrything? The guy that mailed them to me only sent this, but I just saw the original article on this newsgroup. The NeXTstation comes to $3370. Here at the U of A, the same system is $3205 for comparison. Sorry about the confusion. David Koski

Our prices (U of A) are actually a few hundred dollars cheaper than this list shows. Did you forget to add the price of a monitor???

Note that the prices that you referenced are the unbundled prices and do not include the monochrome display ($785) or the required starting point kit ($175). The actual price is probably pretty close to what you would have to pay at U of A. The only people that can buy from the UT microcenter are full time UT students or faculty (not that anyone else would want too :-). -- John Garnett University of Texas at Austin garnett@cs.utexas.edu Department of Computer Science Austin, Texas

I think the reason things are priced higher in Arizona is in
retaliation for the state voting against the Martin Luther King
