We received a letter in the mail from Larry Lunetta of Ridge saying something
like this:

We made lots of money selling off the remaining 3200's that we could build.
Nobody (including Bull Corp) wants any more 3200's.
We're closing up shop.
Don't worry - a third party maintenance company will take over maintenance.

That's a summary of the letter we got. We had an idea that they were going
to pull something like this anyway, so we bought a Pyramid 9825 (faster and
better than a Ridge 3200) last October. We are in the final phases of 
porting our software to the Pyramid. When we complete the port and go "live",
we will be de-commissioning the Ridge and stripping out the disk drives for
use on the Pyramid. The Ridge will then be put up for sale. Anyone interested?
