  Well, that's real problem, isn't it. I bet that's what most of
the investors say when approached by Symbolics. 

  So, how do you get more users when for all practical purpose Genera
isn't available anymore and Symbolics has actively discouraged them? I
don't know of any sure fire ways to success but I do know that the
current path is doomed. I'm sure Symbolics realizes that too. I just
haven't seen anything to indicate they're ready to make any bold
changes.
