[net.micro.mac] MacWorkstation

johnd@kvvax4.UUCP (John Dibble) (11/25/85)

I am embarking on a project that aims to make the Macintosh into a generic
workstation - mainly in the field of industrial automation.
I am not a supporter of "re-inventing the wheel" and therefore would like
to come into contact with others that have done or are doing something similar.

Specifically, I am developing a parameter driven dialogue/presentation
application that connects to a microVAX2 ELN process via a yet-to-be-defined
protocol (lower level than AppleTalk).

I am using MacC (4.0) together with MacExpress and a skeleton is already
working.

Please mail me if you have common interests in this area.

I've picked up a rumour that someone out in netland has developed a
"MacWorkstation" that is a Mac-based application providing a host
(uVAX?) with a Mac-like user interface.
I'm VERY interested in making contact with such a person(s) with an aim to
discussing the machine-machine interface/protocol. I am working on a similar
project for industrial automation.

I plan to be in California from the 7 April to approx 12 April ('Frisco area)
and if you cannot manage to reach me via the net (before 5 April), I can be
contacted at the Four Seasons (Clift) hotel in the centre of San Fransisco.
Alt. the industrial attachee's office at the Norwegian Consulate
- tel 415 9860765. (If I'm not there please leave tel no.and I'll reply).
PS. I'm in the Boston area from the 12-15 April - then back to Norway.

Looking forward to "your" reply........
