<<< Those of you who are following the exploits of S1 (the operating system to end all operating systems) may want to pick up the Mar 85 issue of Venture Magazine. It has an article about the company titled " A Software Producer with Chutzpah". Some quotes: "Our product is 90% to 95% complete.Most of what we can't show stems from the fact that we've exceeded the current state of the art of hardware" "The networking stuff is not there, nor has it been tested or used in a networking environment though it's the most touted aspect of it. If S1 had all the software Lombardo claims, I'd endorse it. I've felt all along,though, that their stalling for time" They did mention a 5 year $40 million dollar deal with some Japanese companies so maybe theres still hope. John Eaton !hplabs!hp-pcd!john
