I bought an NCR '825 from ASA Computers (http://www.asacomputers.com). It was a little more than $100. They were out of the '815s and sold me the '825 for the price of the '815. The only problem that I had was that it took them three days and a phone call from me to realize that they didn't have the '815s anymore and to send me the '825. They did overnight the '825 for no extra charge after the trouble. Philip Elcan elcan@intersurf.com
