Certainly. I'd LOVE to look at such a machine. We **DO** assume of course
that for that price you get a WHOLE COMPUTER. That is, for a Unix box,


CPU
16 megabytes of memory
at least 600 megabytes of disk
1024x1024 graphics, 256 colors, including monitor
Additional memory costs no more than $100 per megabyte.
Additional 600 megabyte disks no more than $2000.


You wouldn't be trying to purvey stripper models for that price, would you???
Really???
