I remember you have once given the complete history list of Chessmaster
distributors... something like

The Software Toolworks
Mindscape
Mattel Interactive, which was renamed to
The Learning Company
Ubi Soft

(It seems to me I forgot one or two)

I think it is even more complicated with those lot's of game software companies
like Ubi Soft, Bullfrog, Electronic Arts and the like; they are buying and
selling each other permanently. I could never tell anyway, which of all these
names is a software company actually, a distributor, a programmer's group or
just a nice looking box label. :o)

Btw. Ubi Soft has just released a (beforehand) highly acclaimed racing
simulation game, the 3rd part of a series. Many bugs have been found in the
initial release. The customers are already demanding a patch...
