Insignia Solutions, Inc.
<company> /in-sig'nee-* s*-loosh'nz/ A company that made its name as a
provider of software that allows users to run Microsoft Windows and MS-DOS
application programs on Digital, HP, IBM, Motorola, NeXT, Silicon Graphics and
Sun/SPARC workstations, X terminals, Java desktops, and Apple Computer's Power
Macintosh and Motorola 68000-based computers.
Insignia Solutions was founded in 1986. Their first product, SoftPC 1.0 for Sun
workstations, was introduced in 1988. Also in 1988, Insignia shipped its first
version of SoftPC for Apple Computer's Macintosh. As the demand to run Windows
and MS-DOS applications on non-Intel computers grew, Insignia signed OEM
agreements with several companies including Data General, Digital, Fujitsu, HP,
Intergraph Corp., Motorola, Silicon Graphics, and Sun Microsystems.
Insignia Solutions sold its SoftWindows and RealPC product lines to FWB Software
[when?]. Its major product in 2000 is the Jeode platform, a Java virtual machine
for Internet appliances and embedded devices.
