Casady & Greene Shuts Down -- Casady & Greene, one of the oldest companies in the Macintosh market, is shutting down after 19 years, according to Bonnie Mitchell, Casady & Greene's VP of Public Relations. Full details weren't available at press time, but it appears as though Casady & Greene simply couldn't remain financially viable. Although the company had released a number of Mac OS X products this year, including Spell Catcher X, Tri-Catalog, Clone X, and iData Pro (see "The Digital Shoebox: iData Pro X 1.0.5 in TidBITS-675), revenues weren't sufficient to keep the doors open or to pay some of its contract programmers. None of Casady & Greene's current products have the same broad appeal as Conflict Catcher (which never made it to Mac OS X) or SoundJam, which became the basis for Apple's iTunes, and the transition to Mac OS X proved particularly problematic for the company.
