Yellow Box

   <operating system> {Apple Computer, Inc.}'s new development
   {platform} for building {desktop}, {server}, and {web}
   applications.  Yellow Box is a rich {object-oriented}
   environment that is tightly integrated with {Java} and allows
   you to deploy applications across five platforms: {Rhapsody},
   {Rhapsody for Intel}, {Windows 95}, {Windows NT}, and {Mac OS}.
   All Yellow Box-based products are an evolution of {OpenStep} -
   an operating system-independent, object-oriented application
   platform from {NeXT}.

   Integrating the cross-platform robustness of OpenStep with
   Apple's market-leading digital media and graphics technologies
   will differentiate the Yellow Box from other development
   platforms.

   "Yellow Box for Windows" is the {run-time} software
   (implemented as {dynamically linked libraries}) that allows
   {Yellow Box} applications to run under {Windows 95} and
   {Windows NT}.  Applications that use it will feature a full
   native Windows user interface.
