I just called the folks at Ingenius and they are still in business. Although
the cutesie name does not bode well for them, I was told that Reuters only
bought 50% of them. Xpress executive is now defunct however. The sales
guy (ya, I know, never beleave a sales guy) said that the new Mac software
was shipping this week, and that the Windoze version would be shipping in
1 to 2 weeks.

The guy said Reuters bought them to get into the educational market. This
begs the question, how exactly do they plan to get money from all the little
kiddies?
