[Mary Donlan]

Dear X-PLOR users:

MSI would like to announce the release of X-PLOR 98.0.  This new release
offers substantial new capabilities for both X-ray crystallographic and NMR
Structure refinement including:

-Maximum Likelihood methods for X-ray Structure Refinement
-Optimized Torsion Angle Dynamic (TAD) Methods
-Validated scripts for TAD with NMR distance restraints
-Ambiguous Restraints for Iterative Assignment (ARIA) technology
-Novel technology for NOE refinement.

All of these enhancements are geared towards helping you determine better
quality structures faster.  

Interfaces to X-PLOR 98.0 are also available as part of InsightII (Xsight
for crystallography and NMR X-PLOR for NMR) as well as Quanta for X-ray
refinement.  

As this new release  indicates and as our continued development plans will
show, MSI is committed to maintaining X-PLOR's leadership status through
MSI's ongoing development and support of X-PLOR.
