I  have  further  information  about  the  demise  (possible) of Niche
technology which some correspondent was asking about.

Yesterday,  I  heard  the  news that  NT  had   ceased trading at  the
beginning of the week.   As we are (would  be, might [or  whatever the
correct  tense  is])  getting  a Niche  development kit installed this
week, I made a few phone calls.  Niche are not  answering the phone at
all.  Their Admin number is now in use  by some other  company and has
been   for several months.    Our    order  was actually placed   with
Transtech, of High  Wycombe.   They confirmed NT's  cash-flow problems
and let slip that Transtech's MD was in Bristol  yesterday morning.  I
get very suggestive rumours that Transtech are seriously interested in
taking over Niche's operations in this country at least.

Hope this is useful.
