	Hmmm.  Now THERE'S an interesting thought.  Maybe Microsoft could sort
	of incorporate NeXTstep into Windows the same way they promise they
	will incorporate PostScript into Truetype (or is it TrueType?  True
	Type?).  Last I looked, it was impossible to find a reasonably-priced
	but powerful (relative to NeXTstep) Windows development environment.
	Maybe incorporating NeXTstep wouldn't be a bad idea for them.

	And maybe pigs can fly.
