A few weeks ago Apple bought software technology from a certain Lowell based Qbus/SuperMicro/Unix-SysV (need any more help) Computer Company for the tidy sum of $4.5 million. Shortly thereafter the company was liquidated. What was acquired? About 15 man-years of software that implemented the MAC user interface on a UNIX machine with a bitmap display. This same software had been made available to a certain Rhode Island based University that is involved with MACs. marty -- marty schoffstall schoff%rpics.csnet@csnet-relay ARPA schoff@rpics CSNET seismo!rpics!schoff UUCP martin_schoffstall@TROY.NY.USA.NA.EARTH.SOL UNIVERSENET RPI Computer Science Department Troy, NY 12180 (518) 271-2654
