David A. Lyons asked if anyone knew how the NeXT interface builder compares to
resources on the Mac.  Since the NeXT machine is completely object-oriented,
as far as programming goes, I assume that what would be known as resources on
the NeXT box would just be code/data objects.  So rather than a "get icon
resource and store here, now put icon on the screen at this position", you
just say "put the icon on the screen", and the object does all the work.
I'm sure someone else can expound on this better than I.
