Reason the above info is here
The user Digital Techno is attempting to work with us and the above is the info s/he would like to include in the article. So let's not delete it for now. Can someone help them out instead of biting them, COI or no COI? (My attempt at a clean up of this version is here, but the article has been reverted to the version before Digital Techno started adding to it.) Thanks. Katr67 (talk) 22:53, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Designtechnica
There's a lot of info missing from the published page. No mention of Designtechnica, which is the parent company. Why is there so much info on the talk page that isn't showing on the main page? Edits are old, but this company is still very relevant. MandieJ1975 (talk) 18:00, 29 October 2022 (UTC)
