Jeff,
  Since you obviously can't stand the ST or anything about it and obviously
just use your Amiga for everything since it does absolutely everything better
than absolutely everything else available for 17 times the money, I'd love to
take your ST off your hands, no actually, what I really want is a monochrome
monitor so I can have that 640x400 resolution that the Amiga has, oh but I 
still won't be able to get the 4096 colors all simultaneously while I'm 
working on my word processor and spreadsheet and database and playing a good
game of Marble Madness, all in different windows but all running at the same
time.  Well, make it $80 for your ST monochrome monitor, then, and I'll take
the whole system for say, another $100, after all you said yourself it wasn't
worth anything at all not even a bulbous emu's pancreas.
                               Adam

P.S.  I tried to respond via E-mail, but my letters kept getting bounced.
Oh well, maybe next time.

(Kudos to James Joyce!)
