Microsoft Acquires Softway Systems Microsoft Acquires Softway Systems Paul Jones
Today Microsoft announced that it has acquired the assets of Softway Systems Inc., a San Francisco-based, privately held maker of Interix products for Unix-Windows NT interoperability.
According to Microsoft, corporations, government institutions and other customers will benefit from this acquisition through expanded tools and utilities, via products such as Microsoft Services for UNIX, which provide interoperability between UNIX and Windows NT. This acquisition means customers can more easily benefit from the easier manageability of Windows NT while using their existing UNIX infrastructure.
