Quadraton Systems Incorporated, Encino, California, have offered us
their office automation software: Q-one, Q-graph, Q-chart, Q-mail,
Q-call, Q-note, Q-math, Q-date, Q-form, Q-menu, (Q-* :-).  We do not
know much about them, they seem to be new here on the Dutch market.
The software is written in C and supposed to run under MS/DOS and
various Unix flavours (v7, 4.2, Xenix, ...).  The documentation we
are given is very general, but suggests that the packages are more
comprehensive and superb than anything else on the market.

Question: does anybody have experiences with the company and/or with
the software?  Does it work?  How well?  Prices?  Performance?  Does
it interface smoothly with 4.2?  Is it feasible on IBM-PC's?  Are the
Quadraton people helpful?  In other words, any information that you
might have is appreciated.
