Apparently Fairlight Instruments, makers of the Fairlight CMI (a truly
phenomenal music workstation, most recent incarnation the Series III)
have gone out of business as of about 2 weeks ago.

The phone rings unanswered at the New York office, the LA number has
changed and there's only an answering machine identifying the number
as belonging to Fairlight and asking people who need service or have
tech support questions to leave a message, and the Nashville office
seems to have disappeared altogether.

Anyone heard anything else?
