Wang Laboratories Inc, now committed to Unix for its future business, has struck an agreement with Niakwa Management Services of America Inc to distribute Niakwa’s Basic-2C development and run-time software packages. Wang reckons that the software will enable it to expand its current Santa Cruz Operation Xenix and Unix software portfolio by up to 1,000 packages that previously ran on its 2200 series systems, of which there are over 70,000 still installed. Wang will offer both users and value added resellers the software, providing an upgrade path to its Dynamix Unix server, personal computer and local network systems. Niakwa has its headquarters at Mundelein, Illinois.
