Fulcrum Technologies Inc. announced support for the Apple Computer, Inc. Power Macintosh as part of the continuing roll-out of SearchServer 3.5. The support comes in the form of a Fulcrum Software Development Kit, which allows SearchServer users to port their applications to Power Mac clients. The product is commercially available now.

``Fulcrum provides products that `bridge the islands of information' in an enterprise,'' said Peter Klante, vice president of marketing at Fulcrum. ``A multi-platform approach is absolutely key to our strategy, and support for Apple Macintosh clients is of particular importance to our customers in the publishing market. With this SDK, our customers will be able to bring all of the enhancements of the latest version of SearchServer to a Macintosh audience.`

``We are pleased to see Fulcrum delivering products for the Mac OS platform,'' said Heidi Roizen, vice president of Apple Developer Relations. ``Fulcrum is a leading player in information search and retrieval software. They clearly recognize the value of Macintosh users and are delivering powerful new features with this release.''

``Just about everything is new in this release,'' said Dave Haskins, Fulcrum's vice president of research and development. ``For example, SearchServer is now PowerPC native, uses Code Fragment Manager and supports Open Transport. We think this will be important to our customers who want to develop high quality Power Macintosh applications.''

About Searchserver

At the core of Fulcrum's product family is Fulcrum SearchServer, robust, multi-platform indexing and retrieval software for the enterprise. While invisible to the end user, compliance with de facto standards, like Structured Query Language (SQL) and Microsoft Open Database Connectivity (ODBC), means that SearchServer can be employed in information-retrieval applications that combine seamlessly with customers' existing information systems.

The Fulcrum C-SDK that allows developers to create SearchServer applications for the Power Macintosh is commercially available now. North American pricing for the Fulcrum C-SDK begins at US $1995. North American pricing for SearchServer begins at US $5000 per server, with desktop licenses from US $295. Volume pricing is available.
