	Don't try this person -- the office will now just refer
you to a new contact person, Paul Goheen or David
Street at their Westchester headquarters.  (Eric's
address information is good for both of them)

If you call this number, they'll tell you that they want
something in writing (attention Paul Goheen), explaining
who you are, why you are interested in developing software
for the Amiga, and "what makes you special".

	(After hearing this, I was tempted to answer "I'm
expressing interest in a machine marketed by a company whose
imminent bankruptcy is being talked about by the Wall Street
Journal, and this private developer's club attitude isn't
endearing Commodore to me....).

	Assuming you become a developer, you get technical
support from a 5-person staff.  If there was anything else
you might get (documents....?) the person on the phone sure
didn't know it.
