As part of MicroProse, the Paragon team developed Challenge of the Five Realms and BloodNet. Soon after, many of the former Paragon principals moved on to co-found or work for Take-Two Interactive, and what was once Paragon ceased to exist.

PC-SIG
PC-SIG was the first mail order shareware disk vendor and one of the biggest shareware distributors in the 1980s.
PC-SIG was founded in 1984 by Richard Peterson and soon evolved, creating a network of international dealers and greatly promoting the idea of shareware worldwide. Its "Shareware Magazine" eventually became a bi-monthly sold at newsstands.
However, in 1992 or 1993, PC-SIG went out of business unexpectedly and without explanation.
