David Schmidt: Director of Sales & Maintenance Operations
Symbolics is currently a privately held company which acquired the assets and intellectual property of the old public company called Symbolics, Inc. The old Symbolics was the premier producer of special-purpose computer systems for running and developing state-of-the-art object-oriented programs in Lisp. It designed and built workstations as well
as writing a fully object-oriented operating system and development environment called "Genera" to run on those workstations. Symbolics also created a number of software tools to work with Genera. The new Symbolics continues to sell and maintain these products, along with Open Genera which runs on Alpha processor based workstations running Tru64 Unix.

Symbolics also distributes the Macsyma and PDEase software products for Windows PCs.
