Has anyone heard from Custom Software Services, the folks who sell PC/VI?
Reports from a friend's procurement office report a busy phone for 2 weeks
(I've only tried one day), recent computer magazines show no ads and a note
in another newsgroup says that their UUCP node is dead. Sounds bad for the
company! I guess I will have to steer people to MKS instead.
Oh well, PC/VI is a fine product (I have S/N 27) and probably didn't need
any more enhancments.

If you are talking about Custom Software Systems, I too have been trying to reach them w/o success. The phone is always busy. If the company is defunct, what happens to their copyright on PC/VI?

If they go defunct, it does NOT go into the public domain unless they or their creditors decide to put it there. -- Steve Westfall Automated Concepts, Inc. - Chicago Phone: (312) 346-8640 UUCP Mail: {ihnp4|gargoyle}!acich!steve MCI Mail: SWESTFALL
