Apple Announces the Fate of Shake

Rura Penthe writes "NothingReal, developer of Shake (a high-end video compositing application), was purchased by Apple in February. Until now the fate of Shake on Windows, Irix, and Linux was uncertain at best, but in an email sent out to Shake users, Apple has declared that Irix and Linux versions will be developed at least through 2003. However, the upcoming Windows version will be the last for that platform. Good news for Shake users with Linux render farms like Weta Digital, which used Shake for Lord of the Rings."

    Wow. A couple second search revealed that we were both wrong: AppleWorks for Windows still does exist. It has just moved from the consumer section of their line to the education section.

    "Best of all, AppleWorks 6.2 now runs on both Macs and Windows." -apple
