To which Commodore Clifford replies...

Yeah, I'll be honest, the 400 isn't one of the machines I'm looking for
in my collection.  I also passed (so far) on a 600xl (might be
reconsidering that someday though due to the size) and the 65xe.

If you're only going to get one, the 800xl is really the way to go.  A
1200xl is pretty great, but the keyboards tend to be faulty (but also not
to hard to repair, and beyond that, it's the best keyboard out there).

The 400 never really "did it" for me.
