SCI Systems Inc, Huntsville, Alabama, says that after the transaction is completed, it intends to integrate the assets of Fortune Systems Corp’s computer operations and the related and ongoing business with its own computer division: SCI said it wanted Fortune’s excellent office automation hardware and software, its established customer base and its outstanding reseller network; it intends to continue the development of Fortune 68020 line and to supplement it with SCI’s own 8086/80386 multi-user systems and workstations – which also run Unix – and over the longer term, the two product lines will be combined by building on the strengths of each.
