- Smalltalk & NeXT enthusiasts:
-
- If you are interested in seeing a good commercial version of
- Smalltalk on the NeXT I would like to solicit your support by
- calling the two main suppliers of same. The current state, to the
- best of my knowledge is this:
-
- Parc Place Systems:
- They are porting to the NeXT and expect to ship in a few months. (But I
- expect the price will be out of reach of many NeXT owners, based on their
- pricing on other Unix boxes.)
-
- Digitalk:
- They are in the early stages of their first port to a Unix box and they
- have selected the RS/6000 as their first target. They have no plans to
- port to the NeXT because they perceive no demand there.
-
- Let's call these guys and show that there is some demand and that we want it
- reasonably priced.
-
- Or, put a NeXTStep front end on GNU Smalltalk. Think of the possibilities...
