<<We saw the CDK2 at the Meckler VR show in NYC in december and were quoted a price of $995.00 by Autodesk. We immediately ordered a copy of CDK2 from our dealer and were quoted the same price of $995.00. When we still had not received our copy as of last week, we began to hound our dealer about it. Today she called and said that the reason we hadn't received the CDK was because the price was $1,995.00.>> The list price of CDK R2 is $1995, however, anyone that ordered in December should be eligible for the $995. discount price that was offerred at the Meckler NYC VR show. <<Autodesk would not be offering support for the product.>> To ensure that CDK users get the attention they need, I have made myself available on Compuserve on a daily basis, 7 days a week. I am willing to field questions from just about any angle short of trying to debug your code for you. For serious application developers, paid support is also available. Yes, we will even help you debug your code, but we can't do that for free. CDK Dealers should also be in a position to offer some level of support to users– although I don't imagine that they're all up to speed yet. <<Is this all true or should I be looking for another dealer??>> I don't think I know the folks at Procomm personally. I have forwarded your message to Dealer Sales for follow-up. I'll ask them to clear things up for you. -KY
