That's too bad. I was hoping AT would improve things... (smiley face if you
  want it...)

Hmm. they've been saying that since August. Maybe AT will insert a little
reality into their answering service....

All in all, this purchase both scares me and encourages me. I was really
depressed when Letraset bought Ready Set Go. I've been proven very wrong
there. Maybe Ashton Tate can take a product that's technically very good and
wrap their development and marketing experience around it and turn it into
soemthing you not only want, but can trust.
