I thought I would verify that, so I called up Scantron Quality
Computers and spoke with two sales persons (one of which is from
their Apple II department) a few moments ago. The official word
is they are out of stock and have no more copies available. They
will _not_ be restocking it either, it is discontinued. When I
asked if there was any source I could purchase it from, I was
told to look for it used on comp.sys.apple2.marketplace, Delphi
or from any other source of used software. So Platinum Paint is
now a defunct program with its status in limbo, like the others.
Incidentally, I also asked once calling what other Apple II
products SQC is still carrying. Besides AppleWorks Classic, not
very much. As I guessed a few months back, they are mostly just
liquidating any of their remaining Apple II stock.
