DataPhile 2.1 and Mesa 1.5B Now Available as A Bundle
BOSTON - AUGUST 26, 1994 - Athena Design, Inc. and Stone Design
Corporation, two premier NEXTSTEP developers, are jointly announcing
today that they will offer their respective best-selling productivity
applications, Mesa and DataPhile, as a bundle at discounted prices.
In a show of support and commitment to the NEXTSTEP community, the
bundle is offered for a limited time at $995 plus shipping. The
products are sold separately at $695 each.
"This bundle offers NEXTSTEP users the core functionality of office
productivity software, for a great price," says Andrew Stone,
President of Stone Design. "Stone Design and Athena Design have
been working together to provide seamless interoperability between
DataPhile and Mesa, and the results are fantastic!"
David Pollak, President of Athena Design, concurs. "Athena and
Stone have been staunch supporters of the NEXTSTEP community for
years. I'm really psyched about working with Stone to offer our
complementary products together in one discounted package. This
offers NEXTSTEP users the most popular spreadsheet and database
packages for NEXTSTEP in one convenient bundle."
The bundle can be ordered now by contacting Katie Graunke at Stone
Design, Inc. and will be available soon through NEXTSTEP reseller
channels.
Mesa is the best-selling NEXTSTEP spreadsheet and the winner of
NeXTWorld Magazine's "Best of Breed: award for Data Modeling Tools."
Mesa includes the features and performance level that users of
other traditional spreadsheets expect, along with unique features
that take advantage of the power of NEXTSTEP. Mesa accepts real-time
feeds from a variety of sources, contains palletized objects,
accepts 1-2-3, Excel, and SYLK file formats and runs on Motorola,
Intel and HP PA-RISC.
DataPhile is a flat-file database manager designed for people who
need flexibility without the complexities of a rigid, relational
system. Using DataPhile's intuitive front end, anyone can build
and manage a database, modifying it and generating reports easily.
DataPhile also comes with a number of useful template databases so
you can begin using it right out of the box. DataPhile requires
no additional servers; it functions alone or in a networked
environment, on Motorola, Intel and HP PA-RISC processors.
Athena Design, Inc. was founded in 1989 by David Pollak to manufacture
and sell Mesa spreadsheet software for 32-bit operating environments.
