Rainbo Works is definitely out of business.  The owner (Don ??? - I
forget his last name offhand) died several years ago;  it was never 
a big business (only a couple of employees), and the business died 
with him.

The clock card they sold was OK, but the ClikClok that Suitable
Solutions sold was better - takes less space in the machine and
generally seems to have fewer problems.
