[net.lang.forth] Computer Cowboys??

	A note was posted recently saying that Charlie Moore had formed
a company called "Computer Cowboys" to market a Novix NC4000 "kit".
The phone number given (415-815-4362) is not connected, nor does
information know of such a company in Woodside, Ca. (address given).
The posting has disappeared so I cannot contact the author directly.
Was this a hoax? Does the company exist?

An ad for "Computer Cowboys" appeared in the March/April issue
of Forth Dimensions.  The phone number in the ad is (415)-851-4362
[The number in the previous article is wrong].  They give an address
in Woodside CA (but I can't vouch for Charles Moore's involvement).
    Another company, "Software Composers", also advertised the
Novix chip in the same issue of Forth Dimensions.  [I sent them
$35 a month ago for a copy of the user manual and still have not
received it --- perhaps these companies are promising more than
they can deliver at this time!]
