- I'd like to thank all of you who reacted earlier.
- I found out the following things:
-
- 1] I must not buy the NC/ND combination, but the Next color turbo
- instead.
- 2] NeXT will not fade away in the coming years, that pleases me!
- 3] I sould look for the NextStep 486
- 4] Everybody agrees that the NeXT software beats the Mac's
- 5] There's enough software, as long if you don't want CAD
- 6] NeXT should be the best choice
-
- Well I'm glad that everybody told me the same stuff, so I must take it for
- facts. Most people asked me what apps I would like to run, so I post them
- here.
-
- - First of all I like to run graphical apps.
- I want to make animations, and I need the video I/O ports.
- I also need the 32 bits color, but that's not the _most_ important thing.
-
- - I will use it for lots of DTP work, so I really need the 21'' monitor.
-
- - I need MIDI ports and the software like Steinberg's Cubase.
-
- - It has to be real fast -This seems not to be a problem, I guess-
-
- These are the main things. Wordprocessing, spreadsheets, etc. will run on
- any computer, so I won't mention that.
-
-
- Like to hear from you all again. Thanks, Lancelot
