Hmm..... How right you are! :-)

Quoting from my latest copy of UnixWorld - (February 1989 page 14):

"Ashton-Tate has filed a copywrite infringement suit against Fox Software Inc.
and The Santa Cruz Operation, charging them of copying the concept and 
appearance of four versions of dBase, Ashton-Tate's best-selling database
software." [continued, but you get the point.]

I guess this means to get it while its hot!
