I've heard it mentioned several times that the file system in OS/2 is better. Is there anything else? Personally, I think NeXT has made Unix much more appealing to the masses, and they have actually given Unix a chance of making it in the "real" world. Why wait for IBM to deliver an OS that NeXT has today? -Mike
