Does anyone out there no what the average going rate for the Amiga 3000 Unix machine is? And what does that include? I am really interested in this machine but have next to no information on it. I have heard that a colour version of X-Windows, supposedly faster than the current release of mono X, should be out soon but there was mention of a certain graphics card needed for it. Is this card included on the Unix box? If not, how much extra is it? Any and all info on the Amiga Unix machine would be GREATLY appreciated...

The "B" comes with 5MB RAM (1 chip) and a 100MB HD. The "D" comes with 9MB RAM (1 chip) and a 200MB HD. On the educational discount for students, the "B" costs $4003. The "D" is $5095. They both come with Ethernet. They currently come with X11R3 mono. Once 2.0 is released you should have R4 and color, up to the Amiga's normal resolutions. For better, Commodore will be marketing the A2410 which is 1024x768 or so with 256/16.7M and a 3 color overlay. Also there is a TI34010 processor in it. No information on availability or price is available. -- Ethan "...Know-Nothing-Bozo the Non-Wonder Dog, an animal so stupid that it had been sacked from one of Will's own commercials for being incapable of knowing which dog food it was supposed to prefer, despite the fact that the meat in all the other bowls had engine oil poured all over it."
