Yes, though not unusual - everyone seems to have this machine at this
price plus-or-minus $30 (some include good deals on memory).

No. Interestingly, memory for the 560 is cheaper than memory for the
701.

The 701 is much neater and better-thought-through than the 560. The 560
is lighter (and of course faster), has a bigger screen. I liked my
701's footprint more (especially when I used the floppy, which I could
tuck under the wing), but I doubt I could go back.
