I was going to say that they are throwing their hat into the "online technology/storefront/automated workflow" ring like EFI, but, seeing as how they can't even get their own servers to operate properly, I'd have to say are heading to hell in a hand-basket

Ooops. I misunderstood. I just quickly read it. Did not see that they bought it in 2008, and, now are selling it in 2016. I guess they couldn't get it to meet it's objectives. As a wise businessman once told me: "Don't get emotionally involved in business decisions. Objectively break it down in to these three questions: What's Working? What's Not? What's Next?" I guess "Design2Launch" was in the "What's Not?" category.
