I keep hearing persistant rumors that a new version of the developers kit with
Mark Williams C included will soon be available. Any truth to this. If not,
any chance you guys will unbundle the documantation from the software?

Answer:
The current developer kit includes Mark WIlliams C for the $300 price, which
includes the Atari documentation and technical support.
The documentation is available separately for $100. Alcyon C is available
for $20.

Is there a reduced priced for people who already bought MWC? I know that that's asking for something for nothing, but it's always worth trying. -- ---Bob Amstadt bob@wiley.uucp {csvax.caltech.edu,uunet.uu.net,trwrb.uucp}!wiley!bob

Alcyon C is available >for $20. :-( Hmmm. I can get the MW c compiler for $175 from MW. Dev docs for $100. 175+100 = 275. This means that atari makes 25 dollars for nothing. Wake up atari we are not that stupid. Some may argue that the $25 is beeing used for support. Well the $25 will not be worth it until we see some support. :-( -- ===================================================================== | Typical conversation on comp.[atari|amiga|mac].* | ===================================================================== My watch is better than yours.
