[net.micro.amiga] Educational Discount...

From: Vallot@CSNET-RELAY.ARPA, Tony <8182314%wwu.csnet@CSNET-RELAY.ARPA>

          My local amiga dealer just informed me that the educational discount
      is no longer being honored by commodore(!?!). Is there any truth to this?
      If not, will the discount be applicable to the new deal involving the
      free monitor? ANY info would be greatly appreciated.

      Thanks mucho in advance,

	No, the edu-discount is still on.

	No, you get one or the other.

	My understanding is (and I admit to not doing the arithmetic) that
the educational discount is still a (slightly) better deal.  But you can't
have it "both ways" (too bad, I wish you could.)

	I am not a sales or marketing person, so I don't know what I'm talking
about. :-)
