Many thanks to the folks who responded with comments on my plea for information
on a distributer for "Voyager" software. Several people asked for reviews -
the program was favorably reviewed on the net as well as in Sky and Telescope
(several months ago), MacWorld(4/89), and MacGuide(7/89).

For several months the ads in Sky and Telescope were silent, but a call to
Computerware said they were still around (I ended up ordering a copy for
$82 + s&h). Last night the new Sky and Telescope arrived with an ad from
Carina software -- you guessed it -- they have just announced a new version 
due out in Sept.
