     OK, I'm taking my first steps into the wonderful world of Amiga
developing. So I have a few questions for those who have gone before, and
who have already made the mistakes I will probably make if I try this
totally unassisted.

     1) What does developer's status with CBM entail? Who do I contact
        about getting it? How much? Student discount?

     2) What is out there in terms of essential literature? Where do you
        get them?

     3) What are the 'must have' developer's tools?

     4) With regards to C, what are the incompatabilities between Manx and
        SAS? What versions are most recent? Recommendations? How hard is it
        to port Manx source to SAS source?

     5) My first project entails writing a device driver. Where can I find
        info on this? Example source? How big of a project am I looking at?

That should about cover it. (For now :) ) War stories, horror stories etc.
are welcome. I'm willing to read 'wise old man from the hill' letters too.
(I remember writing that 3D raytrace program for the Altair 6800. Boy, was
 that a project... :) )

Thanx in advance.
