[comp.sys.amiga.misc] Discounts for developers in USA?

BAXTER_A@wehi.dn.mu.oz (02/15/91)

I am a developer in Australia, and am soon to move to the USA. Here we
have a developers' program which allows me to buy a single cheap A3000
at a discount. Does such a program exist in the USA?
What prices are they?
I am looking at A3000, 5Mb RAM, 100Mb Hard disk +/- Amiga UNIX.

CATS has developer programs worldwide.  Outside of the U.S. they are
coordinated by the local Commodore subsidiary.  In the U.S., CATS
administrates the program including making discounted equipment
available directly with developers.

Signing up for the developer support program is not a "given", however.
An application must be made, where you or your company must outline the
products you are working on.  The role of CATS is to support companies
intending to bring products to the marketplace.

HOWEVER, we recognize that many individuals wish to obtain technical
materials, so we offer most of the materials to anyone.
