- Greetings and Salutations all. Just me again.
-
- CompUSA is now telling me they "might" see the Mac IIvx's w/ CD-ROM
- sometime in February. Yes, that's right, February. They say that Apple is
- having trouble with the CD-ROM (something about it being a 2-speed device).
-
- For those of you that didn't follow this thread from the beginning. . .I
- ordered/pre-paid for a Mac IIvx 5/80 w/ CD, 12-meg of memory, monitor and
- extended keyboard II (just under $3700) on Dec. 3rd. I was told they'd be
- in in a week, then told "by Christmas" for sure (fer sure?), then told
- "early Jan.", and now told "maybe in Feb. Seeing as how its been 5-weeks
- now and only overdue for 4-weeks, I'm beginning to wonder what the story
- really is. Does anyone know or know who might know. Will these systems
- ever appear? Oh, CompUSA did inventory at end of Dec. and shipped monitor,
- memory, and keyboard to me Dec. 30th. However, they sent it to the wrong
- place and I just found it in a warehouse.
