Forgive me if this topic has been hashed to death, but I have to know the answer to a couple questions so I can upgrade from an A2000 to an A3000 :-) 1. How long are the educational discount prices going to be in effect? Is there a definite end date? 2. I know college students are eligible for the program. How about these other categories: a. High school student b. Part-time college student c. Professional educator, specifically an education consultant at a corporate facility How many of the above categories would describe people eligible to buy Commodore systems at discount prices? Please mail all replies. Thanks very much, Ruze

There is NO end date to the Education program, any more than there is to the one that APPLE and/or IBM have. > > 2. I know college students are eligible for the program. > How about these other categories: > > a. High school student Nope > b. Part-time college student YES, Our definition of student allows anybody certified by their institution to be making significant progress towards a degree, to be eligible. We chose that wording because it is the wording the Veterens' admin uses to administer Vet benifits, and every school was required to : Develop their own definition of significant progress, and a monitoring system. They had the same need we did, wanting to include all real students, even those who are part time, but excluding those who just register for one course to qualify for special benifits. > c.
