Actually, Compion was recently bought out by Gould, and Gould has
"given" the support of the ACCESS software to FlexComm Corp. in
Seattle.  We just installed V1.8 of ACCESS-I here and although I agree
with the comments about speed, it did come up quite easily and fit
right into our corporate Ethernet (mainly VAXen and SUNs running 4.2)
with no problems at all.

One side effect of the shift from Compion to FlexComm is that the
FlexComm people are VERY interested in improving the speed of the
system.  I feel very confident that furture releases of ACCESS from
FlexComm  will really clean up the implementation and result in a much
better product.

The address of FlexComm for those interested is:

	FlexComm Corporation
	15245 Pacific Highway South
	Seattle, WA  98188
	(206)243-1641

Maybe I am getting better service since I am a local customer, but I
get the impression from talking to them that they would give anyone the
same attention long-distance.
