Welcome to comp.sys.next.

In the absence of very much real information about NeXT computers,
let's concentrate on the stuff that there *is* information about,
namely:

- the Mach OS
- the DSP chip in the machine
- optical media
- Display Postscript
- what this whole thing is going to cost
- ship dates (if I were a betting man....)
- who's going to win or lose in comparison

I'm going to pack this newsgroup up and ship it as mail to a local
list, and I don't want to have to edit that digest.  If all you
can contribute is noise, do it somewhere else.

Is there a Mach mailing list out there anywhere?  You would think
that comp.os.mach would be a reasonable next step, if there was
enough intelligent discussion to be found.

Noise about new group creation to news.misc.
