   I just called the Boston office and got some kind of switchboard  ...

   Does anybody have any idea what's going on? ...

   Does anybody know how shaky Celerity's financial situation really is?  Or
   how they really expect to run service from San Diego?

After I just convinced a friend at the MIT speech lab to consider
using a Celerity for a file server, he too got shunted off to
California when he callled on Monday morning.

From what I understand, (from unnamed sources) they slipped up again
in production for their new 60000 series machines and they are now in
such shacky ground financially, that they were forced to close up the
east coast operations.

I just finished leaving messages at the homes of freinds of mine in
the company, so if I hear anything, I'll be shure to update readers of
this list.
