SOFTWARE BISQUE SOFTWARE FOR MAC, LINUX, WINDOWS AND WINDOWS MOBILE OS

ISSUE

Is Software Bisque actively developing TheSky, CCDSoft, and its other products for Mac, Linux, Windows and Windows Mobile operating systems?

RESOLUTION

Software Bisque is working on the next generation of TheSky, called "TheSkyX" (as well as it's other astronomy products: CCDSoft, TPoint, Orchestrate, PrecisionPEC and AutomaDome) that can be run under natively Linux, Macintosh OS X, and Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Mobile and other operating systems. 

We appreciate your patience while we complete this significant rewrite to develop this exciting new technology for the amateur astronomy community.

When more information is available, Software Bisque will post it on our web site, in print advertising, and on the Software Bisque Support Corner.
