Thanks to all who replied, both by mail and to the net!

I'm not very optimistic. The closest thing I know of is ServioLogic's GemStone. Macs can be clients of a server running on a vax or sun. chet. Chet Wood ~ (408)727-3357 chet@Advansoft.Com .

I don't have a number handy so try: Servio Logic Corp Suite 100 15220 NW Greenbrier Pkwy Beaverton, OR 97006 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: janet%odb.com@ucnet.ucalgary.ca (Janet) Just a note to let you know that there is now an OODB available on the Macintosh, with no special hardware - and 4 mg of memory (total). It is G-BASE, for Object Database (used to be Graphael). We have ported our product to the Mac, running under LISP. The environment is available, but the GUI is still being completed. The cost is $995.00. To use it today you use allegro's lisp on the mac, but the GUI, which should be commercially available by end of August will allow you to populate the DB without using LISP. I can send you more information on the product if you are interested. Janet Gardner Director of Consulting Object Databases 238 Broadway Cambridge, MA 02139 janet@odb.com (617) 354-4220
