A lot of people have expressed the need for a good development environment
on the NeXT.  Is Saber-C good enough for you?  If so, let you local NeXT
Reps know and make sure they carry back that knowledge to NeXT, Inc.
I believe that NeXT agrees that Saber-C would be good for their machine and
would like to see Saber do a port, hopefully a very complete port.  It's up
to you to make sure that if the port were to be done, there would be
enough people to buy it to keep the price from going through the roof.
If NeXT can convince Saber C that there are not only enough people to pay
for the cost of the port, but also enough that the price can be reasonable
(i.e. tagged onto something like a campus license for a "small" fee) then
we all win.
