In response to some student requests, I have invited Be Corporation to come to campus and demonstrate their products on campus on December 6, 1996. They will hold their sessions in DCC 308 during the time 10am - 2pm. I have asked them to try and discuss some technical issues along with the inevitable sales pitches, so it may be useful. "Be Corp." appears to be a promising and innovative entrant into the multimedia personal computer business. It was started by a former president at Apple (Jean-Louis Gasse). Their products appear to be based on true multi-tasking, heavy use of multi-threading, symmetric multi-processing, object-oriented design, real-time media and communications, and on simple, elegant solutions. I am guessing that these ideas would be of broad interest. For more information, look up their web page at http://www.be.com Please feel welcome to attend this. Also, please feel welcome to further circulate this message to interested persons.
