Ignatz, Gary Fishman of the Hudson Stone Group, which handles investor relations for SEVL, sent me a packet. In it is a Toys "R" Us ad. On the cover, in living green and purple, is a waving Barney whose bubble says, "Have fun and learn with me! I also work on your TV or PC!" Microsoft is listed as the publisher, with the label "Microsoft Actimates Interactive." This weekend I'm going to stop by my local Toys "R" Us on Union Square. I'll ask how sales are going. Plus the packet includes a Walter S. Mossberg review of Actimates from the 9/11/97 Wall Street Journal. In it Mossberg writes, "I really wanted to hate this thing ... But it turns out I like this toy." No mention of 7th Level, though. But the company is involved, right?
