MINNEAPOLIS, MN -- (MARKET WIRE) -- December 6, 2006 -- JAMF Software continues its fast-paced
evolution of the Casper Client Management Suite with the release of the
Suite as a Universal application. Now customers can run this exceptional
client management software natively on both Power PC and Intel-based Macs.
"Our server software runs effortlessly on Mac OS X Server and was written
in Java utilizing Apple's Xcode IDE," said Zach Halmstad, Partner and
Product Manager at JAMF Software. "Because of the powerful tools that are
built into Xcode, creating a Universal version of our Client Management
Suite was simple and we're thrilled that our customers can now take
advantage of the power of the new Intel-based Macs."
"Xcode and other innovative Apple tools give developers the power to
quickly and easily create Universal versions of their applications," said

"We're delighted to have JAMF's powerful client-management solution join
the rapidly growing number of Universal applications."
