A few days back I posted some of my experiences in trying to get
information out of Apt Corp. about my preamp...

Today, I got a call from Tom Holman--who is truly now with Lucasfilms.
He explained that he had in fact left Apt and that the company had...I
guess "languished" would be appropriate...for a while but was now getting
going again and will not only have the same (Holman) preamp but some new
products soon.  So, apparently Apt has already had its little problem and
is on the heal.  (And let's hear it for netnews, which got me this
information so quickly.  I even got a reference to the paper I wanted.)
