With the changes in the educational pricing scheme at CBM, is it a better deal to get developer or educational pricing? -Chris -- Chris Swanson, Chem/CS/Pre-med Undergrad, St. Olaf College, Northfield,MN 55057 DDN: (CDS6) INTERNET: swansonc@acc.stolaf.edu UUCP: uunet!stolaf!swansonc AT&T: Work: (507)-645-4528 Home: (507)-663-6424 I would deny this reality, but that wouldn't pay the bills...

[Ahem.] ...assuming you're planning on actually doing Amiga development and not just trying to get a discount on hardware... :) Besides, developers aren't allowed to comment on proprietary info, and I consider the price lists to be just that. (Of course, the word "CONFIDENTIAL" at the top of the list helps me come to that conclusion. :) ) IMNSHO, C= should start requiring regular reports from developers on what they are doing. I know they appreciate it when you keep them up to date, but maybe they should start filtering the real developers from the freeloaders. Of course, that would add a lot of paperwork on C='s part, but they don't _have_ to actually read it then, do they? :) [Gee, while I'm thinking about it I had better make a note to send in a summary of my work one of these days... :) ] I will say one thing: The educational prices are superb. If you ever plan on buying equipment from C= do it while you can take advantage of these prices. > -Chris Greg -- Greg Harp |"How I wish, how I wish you were here.
