As far as I know, Apollo, Silicon Graphics, and Raster Tech  are just a few
of the people who are jumping on the NeWS band wagon.  Also,
Encore, Allient, and Celerity are some of the companies that
will be supporting the client side at least.

We have been a beta for NeWS 1.1 and have ported the client
library to all these machines as well as to VMS.
