I've been seeing the same ad in the business section of our city newspaer
(The St. Louis Post-Dispatch) hyping the new IBM PS-1 for about a month now.
IBM claims that their going to give you dual floppy drives, a 211 MB hard,
a modem, in addition to their standard package(14 in. VGA color monitor, 2MB
RAM, mouse, Microsoft Works, Prodigy, etc.) starting at under $1200.  And it's
available as a 386 or 486.  Has anyone seen this machine/own this machine/know
someone who has seen/owns this machine?  Somebody please e-mail about this.

P.S.
It just doesn't add up.  An IBM 386 PS-2 running at 20 MHz possessing an 80 Mb
hard drive goes for almost this much.)
