Hi, I bought my copy from fonix 
http://www.fonix.com 
They make the software for linux.  If you need firmware for the hardware
devices you can get them from  ftp://ftp.gwmicro.com 

As for contacting the producers they seem not to like answering there
support emails.  
How nice.

Hi Jim,
saw this but have been busy.  I would start with the source for  the 
software, and I would actually like to know who they are myself as I am 
looking for a clean copy of the  dec-talk firmware.
Not sure of the year of the one you mentioned.  Granted this depends on 
the company, but a downgrade is usually free if your copy is a
registered 
one.
hope that helps,
and let me know who sold you that program, or if your copy of the
firmware 
can be e-mailed?
