The whole of Agfa Photo is bankrupt and will be disbanded by the end of this year. Sole exception: the photo chemicals division (some 60 of a total of 1200 jobs) has found a buyer. No hope for the rest, i.e. film, paper, minilabs etc. The photo paper plant, BTW, has been closed down three weeks ago. Ralf -- Ralf R.
