- Good. At least that ridiculous list price isn't hanging around.

- So what *do* you get besides the extra colors/screenmodes and an '040?
- Any apps yet support AGA? How about CD-ROM for the 4000? Is AmigaVision
- bundled with the 4000? (I hope so).

- I think I speak for more than one Amiga user when I say that before I plunk
- down >$3000 (I'd need a new monitor too, since the 1080 won't cut the new
- video modes), it better be a lot more capable than my old system. (Which,
- BTW is an A500 with 1meg chip/4 megs fast) Some of us have no opportunity
- to go to our local Amiga dealership and look at a 4000, because we don't
- have a local dealership. (Or at least one that actually *has* an Amiga!)
