- The article said NetINFO will be ported. That is it (for now at least). Look at
- the direction NeXT has being going internally for the past 8 months. Bob Lawton
- came from Sun. He has worked on Soloris a PC unix. NeXT also recently hired Tom
- Lavelle, from Intel, as VP & secretary. Do you think all these PC people would
- be coming to NeXT if that wasn't going to be a MAIN direction for the company?
-
- I would like to see a 88110 machine from NeXT. In fact if they do have a
- prototype and aren not going to release it, I want to talk to them about
- licensing it from them.
