		Oh well, I can do this too.....
		Univerisity of Washington price
Mac SE			1551
Mac SE/30		2478
Mac IIcx		2927+345 (for 4-bit card)
Mac IIci		3915

	Note that this price does NOT include a keyboard, but DOES include
the local sales tax, which I'm sure the New York "price" does not (makes a
BIG difference in comparing...).  Speaking of which.....


>BTW, anybody know how these people sell for so little?  Are they just cutting
>their own margin?

	Who the HECK are these people??  I looked over my NY Times for
3/6 and I didn't see ANY ad that came CLOSE to these quoted prices.......
