Message-ID: <1125@io.UUCP> Date: 21 Jun 89 20:47:24 GMT Organization: Interleaf Inc, Cambridge, MA Lines: 20 I have an idea. Here's how NeXT could generate some hacker enthusiasm and programming on the NeXT, while doing something fun: Maybe NeXT should have an informal contest for the best original program on the NeXT, where the prize would be a NeXT system! By entering the contest, the programmer allows his/her program to be entered into the public domain, and with which NeXT could provide a directory/disk of the best programs submitted (identifying the authors, of course). I'd like to see some hot video games on the NeXT, which show off its sound capabilities, as well as its graphics. -- Paul English Interleaf: pme@ileaf.com, ...!{sun!sunne,mit-eddie}!ileaf!pme UMass/Boston: pme@umb.edu, ...!harvard!umb!pme (umb has better email service)
