You are most welcome to call my BBS at 303-973-8578 and help yourself
to the Rainbow downloads. Most of the programs available for the RB
are available and the area is open to the public.

Enjoy...

Ryan,
One of the best sources of Rainbow PD software is the WARUG library
maintained by the International Rainbow User's Group.  They can be
reached at 618/632-1143.  Last I knew, they had close to 125 volumes
of software to choose from.  Alternatively, you could try calling some
of the DEC resellers.  They usually end up with software when they buy
a used system.  Another source of information is the RAINBOW NEWS, a
"quarterly" newsletter published by IRUG.  They have classifieds in
the back.  Another source is CompuServe, but you have to pay for that.
The only other source is the BBS net nodes.
As Always,
Paul

Re: any contract ends if one of the parties dies...

   This is not necessarily the case.  IANAL but some contracts _do_
live on (e.g. a person's contractual liability to pay his VISA bill
does not end when he dies... it "lives on" and is passed to his
estate.)

   In addition we are not always talking about dissolution of the
company. For instance, in (what I believe is) the example at hand,
Suitable Solutions has NOT dissolved ... they have simply gotten out
of the Rainbow support business and are "on hiatus", determining their
next direction.

   Further, ownership of the program is not necessarily vested in the
company that sold it to you.  If Joe Smith writes a program and
authorizes XYZ Company to sell it, and XYZ Company dissolves, the
program still belongs to Joe Smith, who may or may not be "visible" to
users (and may or may not have *ever* been "visible" to users).

   In other words, It Ain't That Simple. :-)
