Sure. It's been done one the Silicon Graphics. I also hear rumors of it's availability on Mac II's. Some SUN employee managed to get is Atari to speak some version of NeWS as well. -Ron

From a letter that came with NeWS 1.1 Beta...
"Third parties have ported NeWS to the Amiga, Atari ST, Apollo
DN3000, the HP9000, and other platforms"

Does anyone know who the third party might be who has ported NeWS to the ST? I know a number of folk who may be interested in obtaining it.

I don't know about third parties, but at the time of the NeWS kickoff some Sun employee had it mostly working on an ST. -Ron

According to a recent article in MacWEEK, there are two NeWS servers being ported to the Macintosh II: a Mac OS version from Wedge Computer of Cambridge, MA [(617) 891-1313] and a A/UX version from Grasshopper Group of San Francisco, CA [(415) 668-5998]. ---- Mark Vita ARPA: vita@ge-crd.ARPA General Electric Company UUCP: vita@desdemona.steinmetz.UUCP Corporate R & D vita@desdemona.steinmetz.ge.com Schenectady, NY desdemona!vita@steinmetz.UUCP
