In a message it was said that the drop in price of the 1040 could be
due to the very bad sales.
This I know not to be true. One of the main reasons for the 1040 to
drop in price both in Holland as in Germany is that official dealers
had (have?) a lot of competition from non-dealers, who imported the
machine 'illegaly' (outside Atari channels). They would sell it for
a few hundred bucks under de official Atari price. Aparently, this was
the solution to the problem.
The 1040 sells very well (at least in Holland it does).
