I have not seen either of their guides, only their ads in "Chemical Design Automation News". I believe that the $800 report is aimed at investors.

I'm looking at an ad in CDAN right now. I don't know how good they are. Incidentally, CDAN (for those who don't know) is Chemical Design Automation News, a very worth while news letter on the latest in modeling and simulation. For info call (617) 890-2175 x211.
