Hmmm.  I can get the MW c compiler for $175 from MW.  Dev docs for
$100.  175+100 = 275.  This means that atari makes 25 dollars for
nothing.  

	Wake up atari we are not that stupid.

Some may argue that the $25 is beeing used for support.  Well the $25
will not be worth it until we see some support.

:-(
