Apple Computer, Inc. will soon release the next addition to the Macintosh System Software product line, System 7 Pro™. It includes PowerTalk™, (AOCE extensions and new Finder), AppleScript™ and QuickTime 1.6. The beta 6 version of System 7 Pro was seeded to you previously on the AOCE Beta July 1993 CD.
The purpose for this seed is to allow you to verify your compatability with the
System 7 Pro release and to further your development and use of PowerTalk. Use of the PowerShare servers is optional (as PowerTalk is independent of any particular messaging or catalog service) and we recommend that you determine if your work requires the use of PowerShare servers before installing them. We also recommend that you begin using this system software throughout your organization.
Apple will be placing a tremendous emphasis on the System 7 PRO launch. There will be a number of CO-MARKETING OPPORTUNITIES available for developers of AOCE-savvy products to participate in. Please be sure to monitor the AOCE Talk bulletin board for details and updates.
Included on this disk (in the System 7 Pro™ Beta 11:Development Tools:Testing Materials folder) are two documents which provide suggested testing scripts for verifying your product's compatability and savviness respectively. These are by no means all inclusive but we recommend them as a starting point.
