I sympathize with you guys with 'Apple' problems!!!

I bought a new Apple //e on Feb 1983 (about 3 weeks after
it was released). My complaints are:

    (1) I was sold a version A board without being told. This
        means that I can't take advantage of the new super-hires
        color graphics offered by the version B board. 

        I did however hear (from June 83 BYTE) that Apple would
        be upgrading all version A boards for free ( as long as
        you bought the extended 80-column card). When I went down
        to the CERTIFIED dealer(Computers 'n Things, N.Dartmouth, MA)
        I had purchased the computer from he just laughed at me and
        said he never heard of such a deal. 

        I THOUGHT I SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN A LITTLE CONSIDERATION SINCE
        I HAD BEEN ONE OF THE ORIGINAL BUYERS OF THE //e.


    (2) I paid $1995 dollars for the basic system. It really burns me
        that less than 6 months later they're selling their systems
        for just over $1K. I REALLY GOT THE SHAFT.



	Anyone for a slightly used Apple //e?
        I didn't think so!!!
