Does anyone know what is happening at XyQuest (manufacturers of 
XyWrite)?

I had a mailing from them yesterday advertising an upgrade to
XyWrite 4.  One thing I noticed was that they had moved to Baltimore and 
were described as "The XyQuest Division of The Technology Group Inc.".

The thing that puzzled me more was XyWrite 4.  Less than a year ago,
they were launching a new wordprocessor called Signature, which I
understood from their publicity was set to replace XyWrite and IBM's
Displaywrite.  This publicity seemed to be encouraging XyWrite users to
switch to this new product.  My assumption was that XyWrite would no
longer be upgraded, and that Signature would replace it.  But yesterday
along came a XyWrite 4 mailing.  However, many of the features look to
be almost the same as those advertised for Signature.

What is going on?
