They absolutely are still in business and still producing excellent software

(22DISK and 22NICE are just two products among many).  It's just that they

have moved to Oregon, and there are still lots of old copies of the

shareware around with the old address and phone number.  Here is the new

information:

        Sydex
        P.O. Box 5700
        Eugene, OR  97405
        Voice:  503-683-6033
        FAX:    503-683-1622
        Data:   503-683-1385

I'm sending them $25 today for their AnaDisk program.  Stick a CP/M disk in

your machine and get a complete report on how it is set up: sides, sector

sizes, skew.  Look at any track or sector.  It's like the standard CP/M disk

utility programs except that it works with diskettes in just about any

format.  And it can make a duplicate of just about anything you throw its

way.  Sydex is definitely a company that deserves our support.
