              Vega was  MPI's premier software environment for 
                    the creation and deployment of real-time visual and audio 
                    simulation, sensor, virtual reality, and general visualization 
                    applications. By combining advanced simulation functionality 
                    with easy-to-use tools, Vega provides the basis for the most 
                    productive process for building, editing, running and deploying 
                    sophisticated applications quickly and easily. 
            ********  Note MPI sadly withdrew Vega from sale in the 3rd quarter of 2005 ********
