I'm sorry to single out this particular message, but I felt that there is a need to clarify some things.

I have seen WAY too many people offering their IIcis and IIcxs for over $1200 for a no-HD configuration. However, a BRAND-NEW IIvx 4/80 costs $1225 from my campus reseller, and I believe ~$1300 from commercial outlets. Now, it includes a mouse, internal video that can support up to 16-bit color, and 3 OPEN NuBus slots. It is about the same speed as a IIci (which means at least 50% faster than IIcx) and it will be UPGRADEABLE to a PowerPC.

Now, would anyone pay $1200 for a bare-bones IIci if they can get the IIvx with an 80MB hard drive for a hundred more? I really doubt it.

Let's see some sensible prices for these machines, please.

Hopefully, if you didn't know this beforehand, this has helped you out.
