    I am one who will willingly fight very forcefully to prevent the
legislation being brought up. As for this:

=================
A primary reasons for the discount program is that computers are like
cocaine -- once someone is hooked on a brand [e.g. macintosh], they
will continue to be a "user" (computer abuser?) for the rest of their
lives.

	Bull****!  Sure, any smart business tries to sway the public over to
its side of the computer wars. If one becomes "hooked" on a Macintosh... then
I'd consider that a good thing. If that person were to become "hooked" on
an IBM compatible... then so be it! One way or another, the user will favor
one of the available machines... and if he saves a little !@%^%%$ money in
the process, is that wrong?  NO!

	I'm quite glad that I saved a bundle of money by buying my Mac SE from
Computerland through Purdue University.  What do you think may happen to
RETAIL prices when there is no LOW discount hardware available? I would
imagine that prices at your local computer store will go UP!

	Opposition to this message will include:
		those who are out to make money!
        (greed! they want more money!)
    Support for this message comes from:
		those who wish to save money!
        (people who want computers but can't afford what dealers want)
