Apple Computer, Inc.' s new development platform for building desktop, server, and web applICations. Yellow Box is a rICh object-oriented environment that is tightly integrated with Java and allows you to deploy applICations across five platforms: Rhapsody, Rhapsody for Intel, Windows 95, Windows NT, and Mac OS. All Yellow Box-based products are an evolution of OpenStep - an operating system-independent, object-oriented applICation platform from NeXT. Integrating the cross-platform robustness of OpenStep with Apple' s market-leading digital media and graphICs technologies will differentiate the Yellow Box from other development platforms. "Yellow Box for Windows" is the run-time software (implemented as dynamICally linked libraries) that allows Yellow Box applICations to run under Windows 95 and Windows NT. ApplICations that use it will feature a full native Windows user interface. . (1997-10-15)
