What the ad says is $299 for the 820-II (with software).
It also goes on to say that the enclosure with the 8-inch disk and
10 Meg hard disk is AVAILABLE (almost, but not quite specifies $CALL).
BUT $CALL is what ya gotta do! (I haven't done so yet, but if it was
$299 for the whole ball o wax, I'm sure that by the time I called
they'da been outa stock.) Good Luck - if I missed a bargain,
C'est La Vie.
