Apple has invited Omnis Software to be one of only four presenters at the Apple Hands-on Theater at the Macworld Expo. At this venue, Omnis will introduce show attendees to the power of Omnis Studio as a development tool. Theater participants will have the opportunity to build a custom, fully functional Web application in less than 50 minutes.
Jerry Lipscomb, Omnis chief evangelist, who will be making the demonstrations, said, "We're delighted to have this opportunity to demonstrate the power of the Omnis technology. We have been committed to the Apple platform since before the Mac -- the first version of Omnis appeared on Apple II -- and we have supported business application development in the Mac environment ever since. We believe that OSX, with its stable and proven Mach kernel, will make the Mac a serious contender in the business market, and we intend to do everything we can to promote and encourage that success."
Lipscomb continued, "The production of an OSX version of Omnis Studio is a testament to both the power of the Omnis technology and the skill of our engineers. Many development tools are tied in tightly with a single operating system, whereas the Omnis engineering team has created a common interface layer, allowing all of the code to be written once, and the interface takes care of the calls to the individual OS. To really understand this, consider Linux. Our engineers managed a complete port in just a few months, and we launched Omnis Studio for Linux last September. Nearly a year later, we are still waiting for the appearance of Kylix. Omnis has enjoyed similarly rapid progress since work began on an OSX version of Studio earlier this year."

Macworld Expo is being held in New York City at the Jacob K. Javits Center from July 18-21, 2000. Omnis is exhibiting in Booth No. 1855, the Small Business Solutions Pavilion, and in the Apple Hands-On Theater.
About Omnis Studio
Omnis Technology's flagship product, Omnis Studio is a high-performance visual RAD tool that provides a component-based environment for building GUI interfaces within e-commerce, database and client/server applications. When used with the company's Web Client plug-in technology, Omnis Studio allows the development of client/server relationships over the Internet using popular web-browsers, giving fast, secure, scalable solutions in a minimum of development time. Development and deployment of Omnis Studio applications can occur simultaneously in Linux, Windows, and Mac OS environments without changing the application code. This portability is achieved because Omnis utilizes a highly optimized interpreter engine to execute the object-oriented application at runtime. Omnis Studio applications support native data access to Oracle, Sybase, DB2/UDB, Informix and ODBC-compliant data sources including MySQL. The Omnis Web Client allows the developer to create client interfaces that either utilize forms or a highly secure plug-in. Using Omnis Studio cuts application development time by as much as 75 percent compared to 3GL environments (C++, Java), while allowing the developer to use objects developed in 3GL environments as components in Omnis applications.
