Message-ID: <415@datran2.uunet> Date: 11 Dec 89 23:27:17 GMT References: <286@ns-mx.uiowa.edu> Organization: Data Transforms, Denver, CO Lines: 10 According to what I have been told by reliable sources, the new IBM workstation will run NeXTStep as an option. It is unclear if there will be an additional charge to add NeXTStep to the OSF motif environment that is already there. The new IBM RT could be a real boost to NeXTStep if it is a good, aggressively priced machine. I fear that the AS400 people are going to kill it before it can take a breath.
