Message-ID: <2238@cs.Buffalo.EDU> Date: 28 Oct 88 00:14:01 GMT Sender: ugbernie@cs.Buffalo.EDU Reply-To: ugbernie@cs.Buffalo.EDU (Bernard Bediako) Distribution: na Organization: SUNY/Buffalo Computer Science Lines: 8 The NeXT looks like a great machine, but what exactly makes it worth while for a cs department. The DSP isn't going to do your typical cs dept. much good. And since sun is already has faster machines, how can we justify getting one... The only buzz-word is CASE (computer aided software engineering). Does anyone else have any ides on 'Why a NeXT?' bernie
