Group Organizer Server 4.0.3 New Today For Mac OS X

Chronos LC today announced the release of Group Organizer Server 4.0.3, its first Cocoa product for Mac OS X. According to Jerry Halls, V.P. of Sales at Chronos, ÒThe new Cocoa server offers unparalleled performance, reliability, and scalability. Plus, the new server software takes less than a minute to install and setup.Ó

Group Organizer Server was previously written as a Carbon application. Version 4.03 has been re-written from the ground up using Cocoa and makes use of native Unix sockets for TCP/IP networking. The new networking infrastructure combined with CocoaÕs pre-emptive threading architecture takes Group Organizer Server to the next level.

The new server is immediately available, free of charge, to all existing Group Organizer 4 users. It may be downloaded directly from ChronosÕ website.

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION

Chronos calls its product the ÒSwiss Army KnifeÓ of productivity software. It integrates a calendar, address book, word processor, memo taker, personal journal, phone dialer, and alarm clock into a single easy-to-use application. To top it off, it synchronizes with all Palm and Handspring handheld organizers. Group Organizer is intended specifically for network users who need to share information with their co-workers. It uses an advanced client/server design to provide a robust and reliable group collaboration solution including the ability for PowerBook users to disconnect from the network, with information in hand, and synchronize changes upon return.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

Group Organizer Server 4.03 requires Mac OS X. The application occupies less than 1 MB of disk space. Group Organizer clients may connect to the new server from both Mac OS 8.6-9.x and Mac OS X.
