This was one of the two companies that I mention in my last posting.
At the time I did not know about the buy-out. I also understand that
Traconex is planning on droping the price on the PSTI clock (I'm not
sure how true this is). 

The other company that I mention (they make a PC version VERY similar
to the PSTI board seeing that the person that design the PSTI is the
same person that is doing the PC version) is:

		Time Sync
		921 Bluebonnet Dr.
		Sunnyvale, Ca. 94086
		(408) 738 - 2862

This company is getting to REALLY take off. Their price for the PC
version is about $150.
