In an earlier posting I wrote something to the effect that NeXTStep runs
on top of OS/2.  Actually, NeXTStep runs on top of AIX Unix on the PS/2
machines.  OS/2 is a competing OS for the PS/2. 

Thus, NeXTStep currently runs on top of various Unixes.  However, I don't
believe this has to be the case.  Another operating system with the 
proper functionality could have NeXTStep run on top of it.
