I COULDN'T RESIST GETTING INTO THIS DISCUSSION ON MOTHERBOARD UPDATES.  IF YOU
COMPARE THE COST OF THE UPGRADE AND THE 'EXTRAS' YOU ALSO HAVE TO BUY, WHY NOT
JUST BUY A //GS AND KEEP YOUR ORIGINAL (OR SELL IT OUTRIGHT)?  THE PRICE ON THE
//GS WILL HAVE TO COME DOWN, IN FACT, THE MILITARY EXCHANGES ARE ALREADY
DISCOUNTING THE PRICE.  I SAW A //GS AT LANGLEY AFB VA ON SALE (THE SIGN SAID
WHILE THEY LAST) FOR $1595.  THIS PACKAGE DEAL INCLUDED THE COMPUTER (WITH 
1.25MEG RAM), ONE 3.5 DRIVE, AND THE NEW COLOR MONITOR.  IT WON'T BE LONG BEFORETHE RETAIL PRICE COMES DOWN ESPECIALLY WITH CHRISTMAS APPROACHING AND THE
EXPECTED COMPETITION FROM COMMODORE AND ATARI.  (JUST A PROPHECY BUT I LIKE THE
SOUND OF IT.
