Folks, SLCTY is very much a part of the new purchase deal that was struck recently. SLCTY may, in fact, or theory, be about ready to pick up some steam. I think this baby has got something going for it!
Notice the first word below, "SELECT'S"......That's Select Software, OTC:BB, SLCTY. .
"SELECT's product line, coupled with Princeton Softech's eData distribution and management technologies, will enable customers to quickly and cost-effectively move into the eDimension," states Joe Allegra, president of Princeton Softech. "Building new eBusiness applications is essential for companies who want to gain a competitive edge while reducing costs and generating new sources of revenue."

I'm with you, my friend. I was told today by someone that did not wish for me to quote him that he thought SLCTY would become a full reporting. I hope so.

I am a little confused. Can anyone tell me what the below PR means to SLCTY? If Princeton bought out everything that SLCTY owned, does that leave SLCTY a shell? A partner? Or will there be a name change to something else.
Yeah, I know this is long. But, I would very much appreciate an interpretation of what is happening with SLCTY. I know that they are no longer on NASDAQ. But are on the NASDAQ:BB. For right now anyway.
God Bless and Take Care of Yourselves

Princeton Softech Acquires SELECT Product Family
eBusiness Solutions Are Strengthened by Move into Component-Based Development Products
PRINCETON, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 1, 1999--Princeton Softech, a subsidiary of Computer Horizons Corp. (Nasdaq: CHRZ - news), has purchased substantially all of the assets of SELECT Software Tools plc (Nasdaq: SLCTY - news), including all of the software assets and intellectual property rights associated with the Select software products.
This move positions Princeton Softech as a market leader of Object-Oriented, Component-Based Development products for enterprises developing and implementing Java and C++ eBusiness applications.
''SELECT's product line, coupled with Princeton Softech's eData distribution and management technologies, will enable customers to quickly and cost-effectively move into the eDimension,'' states Joe Allegra, president of Princeton Softech. ''Building new eBusiness applications is essential for companies who want to gain a competitive edge while reducing costs and generating new sources of revenue.''
''What is often unrecognized is that the decision to embrace Java, C++ or the Internet is also a de-facto decision to enter the Object-Oriented world of Component-Based Development,'' explains Steve Gerrard, Princeton Softech's vice president of Strategic Planning. ''This new world is very different from traditional IT development and SELECT's products are recognized by industry analysts as the leading and most innovative Component-Based Development technology.''
''We are very pleased with this agreement for several reasons,'' confirms Bernard Fisher, CEO of SELECT Software Tools. ''First, our customers can have confidence in the long-term viability of the products they have purchased from Select; second, Princeton Softech's proven software distribution channel will expand the presence of these products in the marketplace; and third, Princeton Softech brings financial backing and stability to the current software development and support efforts. An added dimension is Computer Horizons' ability to offer eBusiness consulting services on a scale that far surpasses what SELECT has been able to accomplish by itself.''
Princeton Softech is fully committed to the continued development of SELECT's leading-edge products, and will continue R&D ctivities at SELECT's current home office in Cheltenham, England, which Princeton Softech has acquired in the underlying transaction. The SELECT product line includes SELECT Reverser(TM) for PeopleTools®, a data modeling tool for PeopleSoft applications, and SELECT Component Factory(TM), comprised of SELECT Enterprise®, SELECT SE(TM), and SELECT Component Manager(TM).
With more than 3,000 customers in over 30 countries, Princeton Softech's and Computer Horizons' clients comprise some of the world's largest IT organizations. As these companies strive to keep pace and surpass the competition by launching eBusiness projects that will open new markets, they will need application development tools that are industrial-strength and scalable, which is precisely the strength of the SELECT technology that has been acquired by Princeton Softech.
