Quest is crashing and burning, it turns out employees have to pay big fees towards their own Presidents Club trip. Going to be a mass exodus following this trip.

I'm not dead yet! It's just flesh wound!
Define "alive". If you define it as still generating some level of income slightly greater than the costs incurred and milking out the last bits of revenue from the legacy products, then yes - Quest is very much alive. If define alive as a thriving technology company building innovative products and on the cusp of breaking out of the shadow of the Dell nightmare then I'd have to say no - Quest is definitely pushing up daisies.
