Where on earth (or elsewhere) did you hear this?
CT is still in business as of 11:30AM MDT this morning.
Being one of the largest manufacturers of Unix systems (don't forget all
those Burroughs B20's either) with some very large OEM contracts, I can't
see Convergent just "going under".
C'mon Mark - give us some facts here! Just what did you hear, when, and where?
