That's basically what happened to me.  We got bought
out by a much bigger company...which then fell on hard
times...and now there is no match at all on my 401k

Hence the question of if it is better for me to just
quit the 401k and go on my own with a Roth.

And yes i do now one can put more into a 410k.... but
that's really not an advantage to me since Im lucky to
put 2k in anything each year.
