| Nope.  Nlynx formed as a kinda management buyout of the NetWork 
Products Division of Andrew Corp when Andrew bailed from the midrange 
business.  Nlynx then bought Idea out of bankruptcy (really a customer 
list) and then later bought Decision Data (they were on the ropes too -- 
customer list?).  Since DD had brand awareness and Nlynx didn't they 
rebranded their stuff with the DD label.  Now Nlynx is in bankruptcy (chap 
11) due to their own problems.   Jerry Jerome Draper, Trilobyte Software Systems, since 1976 Network and

   Over the years we have aquired many different brand 
    names of devices & sometimes they end up in storage one place &

 Idea & she asked how to 
    increase the alarm volume ... we finally figured out
 that SETUP then F15 
    did the trick but initially confused because no visual
 confimation of 
    SETUP functions working.
 Initially I said the new user needed to know where the twinax manual was, 
    but failing that the last person to use it had some memories.  Now 
    my question
 here ... does anyone remember who bought out Idea, because 
    they listed in
 midrange publications of 5-10 years ago but not in 
    contemporary ones.  I
 figure there might be a web site some place 
    under the new name that might
 have some semblance of a manual on-lin.
