25th June 2001, Wilmslow,
UK. 4D UK, publishers of the award-winning 4th Dimension (4D) database development
environment and WebSTAR Server Suite, announced today that it will be providing
native Mac OS X upgrade versions of its 4D 6.7 products free of charge to
registered 4D 6.7 product owners.
"We
want to support Apple's move to fast track Mac OS X uptake and we decided
the best way to do this was to provide a free of charge upgrade from 4D
6.7," says Rob Wylie, 4D UK's General Manager. "As soon as our
Mac OS X compatible products are available, 4D 6.7 applications on existing
Mac OS versions will run natively on Mac OS X without modification."
4D 6.7.5
for Mac OS X will be available for free download to all registered 4D 6.7
product owners. The beta release of 4D Server 6.7.5 for Mac OS X has already
been released to 4D Solutions Partners and during Q3 of this year, 4D will
begin releasing Mac OS X native versions of its Product Line starting with
4D Server 6.7.5.
Information about 4D's Mac OS X strategy can be found on the 4D UK web site at http://www.4duk.com/macosx/.
