I just leafed through this week's copy of InfoWorld and ran across a
rather disturbing article.  If it were early April, I'd feel better, 
because then it would be a joke...

At any rate, the article says that FullWrite Professional has been
sold to Ashton-Tate.  It continues by saying that Ashton-Tate will finish
the development and then market the product.

Is this true?  If so, where does that leave all of us prepaid customers
who now have gamma versions.  As they say, "we are not amused"...
