RIGID Defunct?

I was reading a review of the Rigid Thickness Planer and the reviewer
mentioned that Rigid (distributed thru Home Depot) was getting out of the
wood machine manufacturing business. Has anyone else heard this....true or
false?

Emerson Electric is no longer going to produce the Ridgid line of woodworking
tools. The Ridgid line will be manufactured by Ryobi's parent corporation.

He may have better luck researching the company if he spelled their name
correctly.
