Is anybody concerned about the "safety" of buying from Hazlewood based on
this article?  I'd appreciate hearing from people about this, as we're
interested in their products.

There was recently sent over this network untrue and damaging information
about Hazelwood Computer Systems and our new product, the UniQuad single
board computer system.  In order to set the record straight, we wish to
state the following facts:

	1) There are NO law suits against Hazelwood, either
	   for money owed or any other reason.  As law suits
	   are matters of public record, anyone who bothered
	   to check before publishing damaging rumors to the
	   net could have determined this.

	2) The UniQuad computer is presently being shipped, and
	   has been since February 1985.  The board has been
	   enthusiastically received by our customers.  Again
	   anyone who bothered to check could have determined
	   this fact.

	3) Frank Hogg Laboratories is indeed selling the UniQuad
	   with case, power supply, and drives as the QT computer.
	   In this matter the net message was correct.  Anyone who
	   has any doubts as to the existence of the UniQuad or the
	   accuracy of the above facts is welcome to check with 
	   Frank Hogg.

I would like to emphasize that this is not a matter of "cleaning everything
up" as there was nothing to clean up in the first place.  If there are any
remaining concerns about Hazelwood or its products I would appreciate a call
at:
