The gateway machine at next.com IS a Sun. At a demo of the NeXT machine one of
the guys referred to it as their "virus catcher". He also mentioned that the
NextStep user interface began life on Suns (the software guys didn't want to
wait for the hardware guys to get done). Now if NeXT would release a version of
NextStep for Suns those machines would finally be worth something.
