We have just received our 2 developer amigas, shipped from Oakland, CA, but 
NO software and NO documentation came with it. And we are among the "official"
Amiga developers!  All 3 packages that form the "Developer's Kit" are listed 
as not shipped under B/O (Back Order?).  Somebody at C-A said the kits with 
the NEW documentation were supposed to be ready!  It seems that this is not 
the case.  Anybody at C-A can comment on this?  It is funny (and frustrating),
we have TWO machines and cannot do anything with it. Not even test whether 
they work.
