Go up one level in this thread


 >but it would be nice to have one.

actually i have mixed emotions about it's impending release

i of course will be getting one and i bought a new Impos Royale for the historic
occasion
however i wonder what the release of the Resurrection will do to the value of my
Tasc's?
the R40 is the strongest computer ever released for sale..
now when the Resurrection is released this will no longer be true

i think that this could cause the R40 to nose dive in value to perhaps $10,000
or maybe even a bit less

another dilemma i have is the upgrade ability of the Resurrection
it will be upgradeable via the Internet direct into the module..
however as a collector i will always want to keep the very first program version

so upgrading it will eliminate version one
i think perhaps the true "Purist" collector must get two Resurrections
one to hold as the first version and then another for the upgrading

Random Thoughts Regards
