November 17, 1987 -- Apollo Computer Inc. and Information Presentation
Technologies, Inc. (IPT) will market uShare, a communications product
that provides for the integration of Apple Macintosh computers with
Apollo workstations. uShare is the industry's first full commercial
implementation of the Apple Filing Protocols (AFP) in a UNIX
workstation environment.
uShare enables Apollo workstations to communicate with Macintoshes,
and allows Macintosh users to share Apollo's networked resources,
including file sharing, electronic mail, print spooling, terminal
emulation, and virtual disk capabilities, as well as network and local
search and application independent voice annotation. uShare is
comprised of software which resides on both the Apollo and Macintosh
systems and an IBM PC/AT-compatible card which resides in a Apollo
Series 3000(tm) Personal Workstation(tm) or Series 4000(tm) Personal
Super Workstation(tm), connecting Apollo workstations to an AppleTalk
network.
For more information, contact your local Apollo representative.
