- 
- The Oct '90 issue of _Un*x_World_ (page 16, "Industry News") states that
- "Concurrent Computer Corp.'s problems are growing worse."  The short
- article goes on to describe a "reorganization" and other details.
- Can anyone -- employee or customer -- comment?
- Will those with CCC hardware and software be "out of luck?"

I am a Senior Software Support Engineer working for Concurrent customer
support on the other end of the 800 number for OS/32 and all languages.  
With the hiring of Denis Brown as President, I feel very positive 
about the future of the company.  I can assure you that people with CCUR
hardware and software will not be "out of luck."  OS/32 and the 3200 series
of processors will continue to be supported.  (If they weren't, I wouldn't have
a job!) The Un*x World article probably was triggered by our 4th quarter loss 
figures.  Mr. Brown has a very good track record turning companies around
that are in difficult straits, and I feel sure he'll have Concurrent back
in the lead of real-time computing in the near future.
