“Radius Inc. has just launched RocketShare, what it calls \"the first advanced multiprocessing software for users of Macintosh computers and Radius Rocket accelerators.\" RocketShare is an extension to System 7 and allows the simultaneous use of a Macintosh Quadra or Macintosh II family processor and one or more Radius Rockets, \"to provide a true multiprocessing, multitasking environment on the Macintosh,\" says Radius. RocketShare is designed for high-end color publishing, graphic and three-dimensional design, and \"boosts system performance and flexibility beyond even the fastest Macintosh Quadra.\"

“If you’re frustrated with the “hurry up and wait” syndrome known by many who use computers, then wait no more. Because with RocketShare, you’ll never have to wait to complete one job before starting another. RocketShare lets you retouch the front cover photo of a magazine while printing out the personal columns in the back. Polish the fine print of a new sales proposal while crunching the final financial projections in the background. Rotate an image while you fill in a new invoice documenting the unforeseen client changes. You can do it all - at once - with RocketShare. Revolutionary software technology that delivers the power of true multiple processing to the Macintosh. RocketShare is a software extension for System 7 users that transforms a Radius Rocket in a Macintosh II or Quadra system into an independent computer.It’s like having two Macs in one. Or even more if you like. Because you can install up to four Rockets in one Macintosh, letting you do up to five jobs at one time. The only limitation is the number of NuBus slots in your Macintosh, the capacity of your Macintosh power supply, and the amount of free hard disk space you have. RocketShare allows you to run any existing Macintosh software without modification. Because each Rocket is its own Macintosh running its own copy of System 7.”
