Back in October, I posted the following request:
    "I need your help!  Our school system is currently using Accent (the Accent 
Expert interface was overwhelming, but we like the Accent Express interface).  We 
used Spectrum (which I loved) before changing to Accent about 3 or 4 years ago.  
Accent has sold out to Follett and will eventually no longer be supported.  We are 
looking to convert to a new program, possibly over the Christmas holidays.  There 
are three programs that we are charged with comparing:  Destiny, Alexandria, and 
Surpass.  If you have any information that you can share about any of these 
programs, I would love to hear from you.  Thanks in advance for your help!"

After doing some research, and taking a field trip to three different schools that 
used the above mentioned software programs, we (the five media specialist in our 
system) decided unanimously to go with Surpass.  Our conversion took place over the 
Christmas holidays and went very smoothly.  So far the support has been excellent.  
I know there are many of you out there that are in the same boat as we were in.  
Surpass is currently offerring discounts for those wishing to convert.  Take a look 
at their products at http://surpasssoftware.com/.

Thanks for your the input!  It was very helpful!  Have a great week!
