Well put Perry.  I work my ass off every night trying to get my products
done.  Anyone who has done serious programming knows what a hassle it is
when you first start to program on the Amiga, even when you get proficient,
things are still a hassle.  I hope this non-update rule does not apply to 
the $1900 registered developers.  The $450 developers are a lower class,
do what you will with them.
The important thing is to get the errata sheets out to the developers.  
Anyone can get a copy of the newest operating system.  Dealers, people
on the net, etc. etc. etc.....

Now, will someone help me with my SPSin, SPCos routine problems.  
Does anyone have a program that uses SPSin, SPCos.  Mandelbroth doesn't.
Help!  Or am I going to have to write my own Sin/Cos routines???

Also, I'd like to hear from any of you developers out there who have
marketed a product.  (As I am close to that stage now..)

(The part about the 450's being a lower class was a joke.  Most of the
 developers I know are 450's and have done a helluva lot for the Amiga.)
