   They folded a few years ago. A few months before that, they had
tried to get into the Mac market on name recognition to make up for
the fact that their products were a little overpriced compared to
already established and proven designs, and that apparently didn't go
too well. That may have been a contributing factor to their death, but
I can't say for sure.
