I have been waiting for the last week to get prices on this little beasty!
The information I have (unconfirmed by anyone other than my distributor)
is that it is an honest to god 7300, with a CT sticker, 7300 software,
etc., etc. Until now, Computerland has had the exclusive rights on the
7300 in Canada. I don't think their sales staff are aware that independant
vendors and VAR's will be able to market the machine - boy are they in for
a surprise!!!

Now all I need to do is figure out who would want to own one...
