	My apologies if this has already been discussed on the network,  but
I am new here and could really use some help.

	I do to own a PC machine yet but hopefully soon I will be able to afford
a PC or equivalent computer.  Does anyone out there own a Columbia Personal
Computer or know enough about them to tell me if they're worth the money.  I
mean, I do not hold the letters IBM sacred, so if the Columbia PC is everything
the IBM-PC is, why not try to save a lot of money by getting the Columbia?

	On the other hand, if the Columbia cannot do everything the IBM can,
I don't need it.  Any advice would be helpful.  Please post your replies on the
network because I know of others who are interested in the same information.

Thanks,
