I have in front of me a 2-page Convergent Technologies ad from the May
'87 issue of Mini-Micro Systems magazine (pp. 30-31).  This is the last
ad I have seen from CT.  (How healthy is CT?)  The ad displays 6 models
of their "Workgroup Server Family".  With the exception of the S/50
(3B1), all of the others are 68020 based.  The S/50 is obviously the low
end model.  The S/50 is pictured with the User Agent windows displayed.
The description reads, "A 'personal' UNIX system that doubles as a server
for up to five users."

The end of the ad reads,

	Standards, enhancements, connectivity and a great
	VAR program.  To find out more about these areas
	of opportunity, call us today at 1-800-832-2255,
	ext. 296.  In Europe, ring 44-3444-11707.  Or write
	us: Convergent Technologies, 2700 North First Street,
	San Jose, CA 95150-6685, Mail Stop 10-015.

If someone happens to speak with CT, perhaps you can report back on
what you find out.
