- I posted the (what I think is the original) posting about the price of
- the Falcon compared to the amiga.
- I said the Falcon would be less than 600 English pounds.
- Some people seem to think that I said 600 dollars and then decided the
- Falcon would be 399 pounds. This is wrong!!!!
-
- I've just found the article I posted to start with.
- This comes from ST Review Issue 3.
- "As to the Falcon, well we've all seen Commodore's A600, which is currently
- retailing at 399 (English pounds).
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ (399 for A600)
- and next to the Falcon it's just a very poor games machine, and it
- (the Falcon) can give most consoles a run for their money.
- Add to this the fact that you get real computing power for
- less than 600 (English pounds)
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ (probably 599.99 pounds for Falcon)
- it represents fantastic value for money.
- I hope this makes the point clear.
