I just came from the NeXT demo here at Purdue.  Not too impressive, but
I don't really care to discuss that here.

Anyway, I pestered the guy about thier window server* and about whether
he knew of any X Server ports for display postscript on his machine. 
He said that a number of schools expressed an interest in it but that
they would not support it commercially (look what Sun did to the
NeWs/X server...) 

Please, no flames here.  If you disagree, take it to comp.sys.next.  I
only want to know if anyone out there is planning/thinking about working
on this.  I am interested in working on it.  We are getting about 20
of these boxes (10 in mid December) so who knows.   Now, if I could add
12 hours to the length of a day ;-)

comments?

*) The guy was kind of funny.  He was all brags till I mentioned the S word :-(
