VR. Now, anyone can easily create powerful interactive presentations, and
users get a consistent, high-quality, cross-platform experience from modem
to broadband.”

“Mac OS X gives developers access to QuickTime’s complete multimedia
architecture including Cubic VR, RTP/RTSP video streaming and MPEG
support,” said Ron Okamoto, Apple’s vice president of Worldwide Developer
Relations. “cast:stream is a great example of how the power and flexibility
of Mac OS X and QuickTime can be leveraged to bring about a tremendous
solution for communication and education.” The cast:stream suite consists
of player, server and moderator applications that run natively on Mac OS X
as well as Mac OS 9. cast:stream also supports Windows 98, 2000, NT, and
XP. Targeted to enterprise customers, cast:stream is designed for
