I haven't got hands on experience with one, but I bet you could build
a pretty good multi-media database on a NeXT.  Consider

- Objective C is a good OO programming language.
- You get a relational server underneath (Sybase)
- You have problems of voice, image, and compatibility between screen,
  printer, and most applications already solved.

Of course, you'd still have to glue all these pieces together, but I
think all the tools are there.
