	Just out of curiousity, why do you want to buy a IIx?  As far as I
can tell, the IIcx is an identical processor, costs less, and takes up less
desk space.  The only reason I can see to buy the IIx is because you want
more than 3 expansion slots, but I'm hard pressed to figure out what you
would put in them.  Obviously, 1 slot is for a video card, a second might
be for ethernet, and you still have one slot for some sort of special
purpose co-processor (lisp machine, graphics processor, etc).  Beyond that,
I just don't see what you might want to put in a Mac.

	I'm not flaming you for your choice, I'm just curious.
