I had no idea that IFS ever did board-level products.

Of course, it ticks me off no end that they don't have
*any* end-user products anymore. I had an application that
I believe would have benefited greatly from using their
compression algorithm (storing scanned census microfilms
on CD, which are now available from Broderbund).
