MidasPlus
MidasPlus, developed at the School of Pharmacy at the University of California, San Francisco, was a collection of programs for molecular modeling and drug design. MidasPlus let the user interact with molecules, rotating and dragging them in three dimensions. MidasPlus also generated static PostScript images. The molecule displayed is a static conic image.
NeXT computers offered great speed and powerful color graphics at affordable prices. Chemists and biologists could afford their own color workstations making possible "desktop molecular modeling."
