Apple's next operating syetem to run on Intel PC's

SAN JOSE, May 13 (Reuter) - Apple Computer Inc Chairman Gilbert Amelio Tuesday said the company's next generation operating system, code named
Rhapsody, will also run on personal computers equipped with Intel Corp chips.

At an industry conference here, Amelio said developers will be able to write for Apple's Macintosh computer at the same time as Intel PC's.

Apple said Rhapsody is the code name for Apple's next generation operating system for PowerPC and will be the primary development and deployment
platform for Apple's Yellow Box applications.

The system includes four components: Core OS, based on Mach technology; Blue Box/Mac OS compatibility environment; the Yellow Box development
environment; and Advanced Macintosh User Interface.

Apple intends to host the Yellow Box on a future version of the Mac OS, code named Allegro. Allegro will be the follow on release from Mac OS 8,
scheduled for introduction in July 1997. Expected to be available in mid-1998, Allegro will be based on current Mac OS underlying technology and will
include both the traditional MacOS APIs as well as the capability of hosting the Yellow Box, Apple said.

Apple said Rhapsody for Intel is the code name for Apple's next generation operating system for Intel processor-based personal computers. It includes
three components: Core OS based on Mach technology; Yellow Box development environment; and Advanced Macintosh User Interface.
