As far as we can tell, Unipress Emacs is still alive and well.  There
are a number of direct customers and also vendors who redistribute it.
There are plenty of reasons why a customer may want a company that it
can hold responsible for support.  Also, they have been doing some
cute things to Emacs recently.  I have talked to people at Unipress
about this issue.  They don't see Gnu as a threat.  They believe, as I
do, that there is room for both public domain and commerical versions
of Emacs.  We use both, though Gnu tends to predominate.
