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. Scott Storkel Macintosh Software Development Rice University
