A new discovery??

I am currently investigating a package I saw advertised in Nature
(11 February 1993, page xix i.e. in the ads before the editorial)
from a firm called PDI (Protein and DNA ImageWare Systems). Their
software, the ad says, runs on SPARCstations, and includes a program
called "DNA Code" which "reads DNA sequence"....

Anyone had any experience with this package???
