It runs under the Macintosh operating system (i.e., not under A/UX but under MultiFinder/Finder). It requires MacPlus ROMs or newer, 1MB of memory (2MB is STRONGLY recommended) and two floppy drives or a (HIGHLY recommended) hard disk. It's called "MacX(tm)" (what else?) and will ship in the fourth quarter of this year. Unfortunately, I need to get an "official" statement from the marketing weenies before I can say much more about it, but I'll respond to any mail I get asking for more information.
