Subject:	Xerox PARC Magic Lenses
	Parallel? Equivalent? Value Lessons?

I had heard a week or so ago about a "Lense" technique developed at Xerox PARC which led me to veer away from calling our early OHS prototype a "Hyper Lens." (I'm moving now to calling it a Hyper Scope, or TScope, ..).

Mentioned this to Sheldon, who knew something about PARC's work and sent me the following URLs...

I'd be interested in assessments by some of you with different knowledge/experience backgrounds than I have, as to how their Lense approach can educate us, or compete -- or possibly they've gotten there first?

Sincerely,

Bootstrap Institute
