This is Slab-Prices in view mode; [Up]
Date: Sun 18-Jun-1991 18:41:54 From: sands@raksha.eng.ohio-state.edu (Scott Sands) Subject: Slab Prices I'm ready to take the plung and buy a monochrome NextStation. However, I can't decide how big of a disk to buy. I would like to get a big enough disk to keep the extended distirbution on line (and pre-loaded). But the price differential (with educational discount) between a 105 Meg machine and a 400 Meg machine appears to be significantly greater than the *retail* cost of adding a 330 Meg SCSI drive. Would I be loosing something by doing this? i.e. is there something *wonderful* about the internal 400 Meg drive? Is it difficult to *get* the extended release if you buy a 105? Would the external drive be significantly slower? Another thing: what about memory? The standard packages all contain 8 Meg. By starting with 8 Meg am I limiting my upgrade paths? Should I insist on a non-standard package? Email me and I'll summarize. -ss
