Did you have to buy a computer before your dealer would let you purchase these
"add ons" through the educational program?

My dealer just informed me today that he'd called commodore and CBM told him
that he could not sell my the A2630/4 w/o also selling me a computer first.

What do I need a computer for if I want to buy an accelerator.  Obviously,
I've already got one (it just doesn't run fast enough, sheesh :-)

Thanks,
