This is in response to a query for a spreadsheet for Sun3's.

There is one product I know that has a spreadsheet (it runs sort of like
Excel) with a whole lot more.  It's really an integrated tool for:

	Text
	Spreadsheet and Spreadsheet Graphics
	Line Art
	Image (color and Monochrome)

With:	Electronic Mail and Electronic Conference capabilities.

It's called Slate (originally called Diamond,  and was shown at the 1987
SUG). We've been a Beta-test site for Diamond and now Slate for the past 2
years,  and we have written some fairly large documents using it,  and
it's really good.  In fact,  it's the only product of it's kind that I
know of.  I co-authored a 40-page report using it, and it certainly made
the job of collaborating with another author easier than any other method.

Recently, one of their developers came to our Workstation Fair in Syracuse
to unveil a sophisticated Multi-lingual package for Slate.

I don't know their current price policy (last I heard they hadn't settled
on an Educational price, grrrr! But maybe if you called them up or wrote
them...)  The number is:

(617) 873-3000
