Many companies, including Adobe, have severed their ties with the new Berthold for business reasons. However, I'll be the first to say that the Berthold Baskerville is quite a nice rendition. Same for the Monotype Baskerville. The ITC Baskerville is okay, and certainly not as debased as most of the ITC stuff from the mid-70s. Mrs. Eaves is an interesting design, and has many nice features in the OpenType incarnation, but it is really a rather distant relative to Baskerville, in my opinion.
