- Well, CATS is a developer support function/department. It is not set up
- to deal with non-developers. (It does not have the staff or budget)
- The Native Developer Kit (4 disk of great stuff) is available from
- "Department C" here at Commodore. You will need to mail your order in.
- The cost for the NDK is $20 (plus $3 for shipping in the USA)

- Many things are available only to registered developers, including
- direct support from CATS. If you wish to become a developer, contact
- CATS for an application. If you just wish to obtain things such as
- the NDK, contact "Department C".
