  • Abstract
    Quorum has developed new technology which enables existing Macintosh applications to run unmodified on UNIX systems, circumventing the cumbersome process of reimplementing the software. Quorum´s software-only solution provides complete compatibility at either the source or binary level, creating UNIX binaries which use the look and feel of the target platform. This technology enables fast migration, while providing an elegant solution to maintenance, investment, interoperability, and performance.<>
