- I am sorry---the original article about the $699 PB 100 2/20 with
- external floppy at Computer Age in Maryland was posted only to
- comp.sys.mac.hardware. At the time it was believed they would
- take mail orders, which they do: but only for shipping in the
- state. It appears that this, and a store in NY City, are the
- only remaining sources at that price. I forget the name of tne
- NY store: check old articles in comp.sys.mac.hardware. Citibank
- sold them for the same price through their Citidollar catalog;
- but, according to a recent report, they already ran out.
-
- The phone number I gave was the one of Computer Age. Don't
- bother calling from out of state.
-
- And by the way, according to reports, Whole Earth Access keeps
- changing the price---which seems to suggest that there is
- room for negotiation.
