  1. Their page is up and running, and this is a copy 'n paste of what I found on their "about" page - On April 15, 2013, Stan and Dee Dee retired to care for family health issues. They closed the parent company S & D Stitches, Inc. Butch Wiseley who has been Operations Manager for 10 years opened a new company named Odyssey Quilting Machines and the CompuQuilter, KenQuilt and StitchRite brands were passed to the new company. Odyssey Quilting Machines officially opened for business on 5/6/2013. Butch continues to draw on the experience of Stan, Dee Dee and Patrick, our programmer. Contact us at: CompuQuilter 5203 Hwy 94 N Rogers, AR 72756 (479) 636-0444 info@compuquilter.com Or log in and use our contact form. (PS - Dawn, working in IT related areas since the early 80s, a year is a VERY long time with "computers". We have to apply patches and updates pretty much every week, major updates and patches every month to several applications and Windows. Maintenance is never-ending. Things change daily - at times more often. Tablets, phones, computers, all obsolete when you pass through the doors after paying for them. The general rule of thumb was that anyone working in IT typically stayed with an employer for less than 5 years. I used to spec out and "design" the computers that controlled turbo-compressor control systems sold by the company I worked for then. I dealt directly with the company that made the motherboards we used. They were a company started and owned by Koreans based in California. Their head engineer told me the most commonly used portions of their health insurance plan were the mental health parts. It was such a high-stress field due to the insanely intense competition many of them suffered breakdowns after a year or so.)
