	In the latest MacWeek periodical (01.22.91), there's a full page ad
	showing a NeXT monitor and telling of how the NeXT system had been
	judged best product of 1990 by the Japanese government and the
	winning of the 1990 "G-Mark" award.  It also quotes a comment made
	by the U.S. Secretary of Commerce, Robert Mosbacher, in which he
	congratulates NeXT Computer "on being the first American company
	to win this prestigious award".  The NeXT system got selected from
	more than 1200 products from 391 different companies.

	I suppose this is true, but why hasn't NeXT Inc. said anything about
	this award (at least I haven't seen or heard anything).  If anyone
	knows more about this, could you please post it for the benefit of
	this newsgroup.

	For those interested see MacWeek 01.22.91 page 33.
