Message-ID: <5469@portia.Stanford.EDU> Date: 3 Oct 89 05:19:20 GMT Sender: USENET News SystemReply-To: carina@ucscb.UCSC.EDU (Amy Bulman) Organization: University of California, Santa Cruz Lines: 26 I posted this before but it might not have gotten out. I am going to buy an Amiga 500 with the A501 memory board, a 3.5" external drive and a 2400 baud modem. I am probably going to order it from either Briwall or InterComputing, Inc. Has anyone had any experiences (good or bad) with either of these 2 mail order firms? I am afraid that I'll get stuck with a bum deal so any response at all would be great, even if it's second hand. Right now I'm looking at a Supra 2400 baud modem, a Master 3A disk drive, and a 1084s monitor. Again, I am looking for opinions/facts on these. Are they good, bad, ok? Please, any information would be greatly appreciated. I can't wait to order my 500 but I want to get an opinion on the hardware and the mail order firm before I call. Thanks, Amy -- +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Amy Bulman carina%ucscb.ucsc.edu@cunyvm.bitnet carina@ucscb.ucsc.edu ...!ucbvax!ucscc!ucscb!carina +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
