The number for NewEra/Tactic is now (407) 832-6691. They had to relocate
after hurricane Andrew pretty much wiped out their offices.

OK, this stuff confused me too, especially after I placed an order for the
upgrade to the latest version of nuBASE with New Era and was charged for the
order by Tactic! This is the story from Dean Meyers, himself: Olduvai
bought out all products marketed/made by Tactic, but they did not buy the
company itself. New Era came in and bought Tactic, the company (the equity,
the name, etc.) and was in the process of merging the two entities when the
hurricane struck, so I'm not sure if they're known as New Era or Tactic
Software now.
