MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT' for a Major Development Project
Apple II and IIGS Graphics and Text Web Browser Development project!
And, an Apple II/IIGS Ethernet card under development for commercial
sales to the public!
Read on........
True, Netscape is only (currently) available for Apple users - if you
have a Mac or PowerPC. But, what about the Apple II's and the IIGS. They
could also have a 'Graphic and Text Web Browser and Navigator', with the
appropriate cooperation and development efforts from several existing
software and hardware development companies.
Well it's finally on!
This project is not exactly a clone of Netscape. But, it will include
all the basic abilities - like Netscape. Not exactly designed with the
current limitations of the text based only abilities from Lynx either,
it will be a combination of both.
A world-wide joint effort - to make available a logical (all-in-one) WWW
Apple II's and the IIGS' is now under active development.
And, it will be made available before the end of next year, at the very
latest. (possibly well before then - with the joint cooperation from the
companies, groups and organizations involved) The status of it's
release, who will be involved with the combined development and release,
are all still classified. But, rest assured you will have one by years
end -1996, at the very latest!
It will be a combined telcom and web browser, with a desktop - mouse
driven, GUI, supporting text, graphics, news reader, email, etc., as
both; P8 and GS/OS. It will not be based, designed or developed to run
under the IIGS' - 'GNO' program. That's all I can say at this time.
Oh yes, and you'll need an Ethernet card for that!
So, if you're interested in learning more about the "ALL NEW" Apple II
and IIGS 'Ethernet card' now under development - for future commercial
public sales, by our 1WSW team member - Ian Maclagan, President of
