Does this mean I'll have to change my e-mail filter from [PEDA] - to - [AEDA] ?

| Hello, all:
|
| Here are some more suggestions for Protel's name change, from the periodic
| table:
|
| CADmium - a toxic metal used in batteries that are always dead when you need
| them most, and exhibit a memory effect (like Protel software remembers bugs
| from previous versions)
|
| Cesium - what Protel software does to your computer
|
| Osmium - a dense, heavy element, similar to Protel's code base
|
| Plutonium - because it's POWERFUL software (marketing hype), or it's really
| out there (reality)
|
| Samarium - because you need good Samaritans like those on the PEDA forum to
| help you with the software!
|
| Technetium - Wow, there's an Internet-age name if I ever heard one!
|
| Terbium - sounds like...
|
| Uranium - the name says it all. Just think of the version numbers (2.35,
| 2.38, etc.)

| Hi Everyone,
|
| Further to yesterday's announcement that Protel International Limited has
| changed its name to Altium Limited, we would like to clarify that this will
| not affect the Protel product line or its development in any way.
|
| The Protel board-level design tool remains a core part of the Altium product
| range. Since its creation in 1985 as Protel PCB, through to its current
| version, Protel 99SE, the Protel name has represented affordable and
| easy-to-use PCB design tools.
|
| However, with the growth of the company and incorporation of new & acquired
| technologies, Protel as the company name no longer accurately represented
| our product range. The name change has been made to remove this anomaly and
| allow each of our product lines to continue to be developed and enhanced in
| their own right. With this repositioning we are now able to ensure that the
| Protel product will be independent and continue to be a driving force in the
| board-level-design arena.
|
| Please continue to visit the Protel web-site at www.protel.com for all your
| product information and on-line technical support needs. And be sure to
| regularly check out the new www.altium.com for company-wide news and other
| product announcements.
|
| Best regards,
|
| Altium Limited
