At Last, A Standard for Graphics Software?

Article Abstract:

A computer graphics package developed for IBM by Graphic Software Systems is described. The package includes a 'Graphics Development Toolkit' that enables programmers to write software. The kit's device driver translates graphics applications into a language that any machine can understand. If Graphic Software's drivers become standard, a single version of a graphics application will work on all machines. Several computer manufacturers have licensed the program. Started in 1981, Graphic Software has sales of about $3 million in 1983 and expects to reach $5 million in 1984.

Horizon Line Now Complete with Graphics

Article Abstract:

Northstar has added the Advantage microcomputer to its line. Most programs run on NorthStar's Horizon series will also run on the Advantage but cannot incorporate the graphics capabilities. Advantage runs on the Z83A processor with 64x RAM or on the Intel 8088 16-bit with 256 K menu by the addition of an ,-16 board. Advantage can be integrated into the NorthNet networking system, as can other microprocessors and communications systems.
