Commodore education sales are still going strong, it's just that Commodore
hasn't asked all dealers to continue seling educational packages. ( Or at
least that's what I have sold ).  From what I hear, Commodore is setting up
certain dealers to be regional education dealers, so your dealer may not be
in on the deal.  My guess is that the dealer to whom you spoke either wasn't 
asked to continue ( or contracted to continue ) selling educational stuff,and
either (a) thinks that educational sales are off, or (b) knows educational 
sales won't be made through him, and wants you to buy from him anyway.  My 
advice is to contact Commodore and get a phone number and address of an 
authorized educational dealer, then look him/her up.  

Hope this helps,
