- Actually, you have to buy them from Department C at Commodore if you
- aren't a registered developer. That's a little confusing, since most of us
- don't know a lot about Commodore's internal organization.

- PAY ATTENTION, Francesco! The $100 fee permits vendors to redistribute
- the include files with their package. It isn't the single user fee. If
- you, as a single user, want the include files you can buy the Native
- Developers Kit for just $20. For that $20 you get the include files, the
- Autodocs (documentation for all the functions in all the Amiga libraries),
- and some development and testing tools. It's a good deal.
