SAN FRANCISCO, CA (October 15, 2001) =96 Leading provider of multi-platform
software deployment solutions Zero G Software, Inc. today announced
complete Mac OS X support in InstallAnywhere 4.5, available immediately.

InstallAnywhere, the world=92s most powerful software deployment solution,
brings its industry leading feature set to the Mac OS X developer
community. InstallAnywhere handles most Macintosh-specific installation
details automatically, including the creation of icons in the Dock and onto
the desktop, full support for the Mac OS file systems (including Mac OS X=92=
s
long file names and Classic Mac OS=92s dual fork files) and the ability to
authenticate users with installation privileges.

InstallAnywhere 4.5 offers the combination of full support for Mac OS X,
complete Aqua look and feel, and the power and flexibility of a
full-featured multi-platform deployment solution.

=93The new Mac OS X is going to give ISVs and IT managers a reason to
reevaluate the Macintosh and its role in the business environment,=94 said
Tracy Corbo, senior analyst with Cahners In-Stat. =93The traditional Apple
plug and play motto coupled with expanding peripheral support of the
Firewire standard makes OS X an appealing low-maintenance alternative for
thinly-stretched IT support staff. As Apple looks to rally software support
behind its newest OS, Zero G is paving the way with a software installation
solution that ensures easy, one-click deployment of Macintosh applications.=
