- Well, many of you may have noticed my messages regarding the
- 710/720/730/735 machines and after talking to HP and some dealers
- it looks like I wouldn't be able to afford one. Sun and NeXT offer
- there machines in 25% (NeXT) to Sun's whopping 40-50% off! I agree
- PA-RISC makes Sun ashamed of the putting RISC on their chips but
- I can't afford anything else (or maybe a NeXT). If anyone has any
- ideas or a used 710/720/730/735 (after the 735 came out today!)
- please email me. I don't read this group usually so I won't get
- posted messages and I hope I didn't tick anyone off (enough to
- flame), I just really wouldn't like an HP and can't find a way
- to afford one.
- CW
