Education Dept. 
Borland Int.
1700 Green Hills Rd.
Scotts Valley, CA  95066-0020

The number I have is 408-439-1064 but it might be out of date; you can 
always call the main switchboard 408-438-8400.  Educational Sales manager
as of a few months ago was John Seamster at 408-439-1072.

Once you establish your credentials and get a customer number, you get the
discounts on any purchase. e.g., you can call the educ. dept and give a
credit card number.
