The New release will let developers transparently port code between Windows 3.0 and the Mac, as well as Sun Sparc stations, DEC DEC-Stations, IBM RS/6000s, and Hewlett-Packard Co. and Apollo workstations running X Window-based systems. OS/2 support is in development, said Doug Pollack, Parc Place sales and marketing vice president. This version features true color support and incorporates the most sophisticated graphics available on each system, Pollack said. Mac and PC versions require a minimum of 4 megabytes of RAM; UNIX systems require at least 8 megabytes. Objectworks Smalltalk costs $3,500 and runtime licenses cost $350 each, with volume prices available. Windows 3.0 and RS/6000 versions are scheduled to ship in the first quarter 1991.
