Hi Craig; I was referring to the common misuse of the name - so many people
call it "Reflections". Only in the HP3000 community.
I have no idea why. Anyone know?

Dave,

Reflection overkill?  Yes, but it works, it was a very mature product.  

I would be willing to bet that most people only use 10% of what Reflection
can do.  Similar to Microsoft Office.

I can say they used to have one of the best support staffs in the business.
I only had the opportunity to call them a couple times, and even after it
was proven that the problem was not with Reflection, they still stayed on
the line till the problem was fixed!

I can't tell you how much loyalty that can generate.

Sadly, I don't think most people would recognize WRQ anymore.

-Craig
