I am suprised that the Mega ST pricing info hasn't made its way to the
net. It is creating quite a controvery on GEnie and Atari BBS. Here are
the officially announced prices for the Mega STs.

		2 meg mono	1699
                2 meg color     1899
                4 meg mono      2399
                4 meg color     2599

The 4 meg machines seem a little steep. If it takes 16 1 meg by 1 ram
chips to go from 2 to 4 meg then Atari is charging the customer 43.75
per chip.

This gives me an opportunity to raise a question 

Do the 2 meg and 4 meg Megas have the same motherboard
with more ram on the 4 meg? If this is true it would be a matter of
putting in the extra memory to have a 4 meg machine. Even if sockets
had to be soldered in first, this is a lot less radical than the old
1 meg upgrades we used to do on our 520s.
