Hi everyone,
We don't normally allow advertising on WinMac, but this information
is so pertinent to our list that I thought I should make an exception. Let
me know if you disagree.

Solving the Interoperability Puzzle
Apple, Microsoft, Citrix, Insignia, and Connectix invite you to learn
everything you can about succeeding in a multiplatform environment at a
special seminar especially for IS professionals. Attend this free
half-day event and find out about the leading solutions for creating a
cohesive working environment in organizations using a variety of hardware
and software platforms. This seminar will feature in-depth discussions on
how to make interoperability a reality and give demonstrations of the
various solutions involved. The presentation and a variety of supporting
technical documents can also be found on the Internet at
http://www.seminars.apple.com/series/interop/.
Succeeding in a multiplatform world
Find out how different operating systems on a single network can work
together to improve resource management, lower costs, and enhance
productivity. Now organizations using any combination of DOS, Windows,
the Mac OS, or UNIX can enable any of their users to access centralized
company data and applications. This cuts back the workload for MIS
administrators and developers and allows end users to use their favorite
interface.
Compatibility-NetworkServices-Groupware-Client/Server-Systems Management
Strategies for a mixed environment using Windows, the Mac OS, UNIX, or
Java.
Visit the web site at
http://www.seminars.apple.com/series/interop/
to learn more about these solutions or to register for a seminar.
You may also register by calling 1-800-895-4853 ext. 200
All attendees will receive a free "Big on Thin" CD-ROM from Citrix!
Thin-Client/Server Computing
Learn about the hottest Thin-Client/Server Computing technology
available. The exciting WinFrame and MetaFrame solution from Citrix is
the only software that provides users access to virtually any Windows
application across your network connection, and from any type of client.
Utilizing an NT Server, its robust features give you centralized
management, exceptional performance and improved security for all of your
business-critical applications and data. WinFrame and MetaFrame are
excellent solutions for any computing environment with a heterogeneous
mix of desktop devices. This lowers cost of ownership by enabling end
users to leverage their platform of choice. It also eases the burden on
MIS departments by centralizing management to the server.
"[Citrix] ICA's snappy performance surprised us: Not only did performance
feel fundamentally similar locally and remotely, but all the PC and Mac
clients performed equally well."
Nathan Garcia, MacWEEK, 6/15/98
Enabling the Mac OS in a Windows Environment
IS professionals will want to attend this seminar to find out how to
successfully integrate the Mac OS into a Windows environment with minimum
effort and expense. By using the powerful solutions presented at this
event, IS professionals can enable users to leverage the high-performance
features of the Power Macintosh G3 computers without sacrificing access
to mission-critical applications that exist only on the Windows platform.
Solutions such as DAVE enable Mac users to easily access a Windows
network, and solutions like SoftWindows 98 enable the Macintosh to run
all the Windows software!
Attendees will also find out about the powerful new SNMP support built
into Mac OS 8.5 as well as the exciting new Java VM coming to Mac OS
later this year. The new Java VM will give the Mac OS one of the fastest
standards-based Java Virtual Machines available. And it will be able to
run both 100% pure Java and Microsoft's enhanced Java.
