I've heard the following rumors about the concept: - its a 68k based workstation which includes a bit-mapped display (something like 600x400) and is meant to interface to a local net like omninet - the software is window oriented and gives the impression of supporting multiple windows a'la Smalltalk - the software is based upon a relatively primitive single user O.S. called Merlin which was originated by Silicon Valley Software; Corvus has greatly enhanced Merlin, primarily in screen handling facilities - Merlin as enhanced by Corvus is still a single task system - the Concept does not use multibus; it does provide some connectors into which Apple II (yes that's Apple as in Apple) peripheral boards may be plugged [remember, these are rumors]. I'm attempting to get more information and a demo. Jeffrey Stone Menlo Park -------
