On-Line Software International
On-Line Software International was a Fort Lee, NJ company[1] whose earnings reports were followed by The New York Times in the 1980s and 1990s.[2][3] It was founded in 1969.[4]
In late 1986 the company acquired Mathematica's RAMIS (software) product, which had sold it to Martin Marietta Corporation in 1983; Computer Associates subsequently acquired On-Line Software. RAMIS was passed along together with a front-end called English.[5]

A claim by former On-Line shareholder against Computer Associates resulted in a 2002 award of $5.7 million "because of violations committed during its 1991 acquisition of On-Line Software International Inc." CA was also ordered to pay "interest of $4.6 million" for the decade plus since 1991.[6][7]
