As with DISC, we here at Bradmark have continued to add new enhancements and
defect repairs to our SUPERDEX product as well.  As Terry has said, there
have been many changes in both products and anyone electing to look at
indexing should obtain/review current information on what both have to offer
in conjunction with their particular business needs.

Most of the current work we have done has focused around ensuring SUPERDEX
and the new b-tree enhancement to IMAGE can co-exist without any impact on
user applications.  There also has been a lot of work with HP on
smoothing-out the use of TPI indexes from SQL.  In addition,  work is
underway in partnership with HP on improving the overall performance of
IMAGE and TPI.

Along with the activities we've been doing with HP, we've been working
closely with several other major HP vendors on improving their product's
ability to take advantage of SUPERDEX if a joint customer is using both
products on a particular database.

If you should need any specific information, please feel free to e-mail me
privately.
