Spoke with my rep at ParcPlace today. Called out to CA because I
just couldn't believe it. It's True. For those of you who haven't
noticed, here it is:

1) ParcPlace has stoped all VSE development. No more will happen.

2) Ditto Jigsaw. No longer is ParcPlace looking to integrate VSE and VW
into a unified product.

3) OS/2 and the Mac will no longer see new developments.

     ParcPlace has stated that VisualWave will never be ported to OS/2
or the Mac. They have further stated that their company's long term goal
is to make Distributed Wave their sole product. DW is to be a merger of
VWave and DST.

     Ask your account rep about the 300,00.00 contract they lost with
us. Too bad. Any comment on VisualAge?
