Quicktime for Windows

Frederick Gault was one of the founders and President of Canyon. Apple Computer asked Canyon to build QuickTime for Windows. With a team of 8 engineers we did it in 6 months (release 1.0 for Microsoft Windows 3.0 & 3.1). Our effort was an unqualified success and QuickTime for Windows was winner of Byte Magazines Best New Product in Show at Fall Comdex 1992. Canyon went on the produce QuickTime for Windows release 1.1 and a second release which ultimately became release 2 after Apple took over product maintenance. We also created the virtual reality technology called QuickTime VR (for Windows).
