The company is Quix, their work is for the PowerPC based IBM PREP machines. They need permission from Apple because all they have done is written some glue to allow Apple's code to run on non-standard hardware. They have a WWW site but I don't remember what it is. Quix has gotten a lot of press, but really they haven't done much more than the PPC equivalent of what people have done before with AMAX, Emplant, ShapeShifter and a variety of other ROM/System file requiring Apple code enablers. --Cliff ctm@ardi.com
