since I last decided to get rid of my mac II to acquire a NeXT, I have
been thinking that the nicest peace of software to have NOW would be a 
package to do macintosh emulation on the NeXT. The same kind of thing exists
to run ms-dos on the mac , and I suspect more NeXT users will want to use
mac programs than mac users do want to run dos on their machines .

since my experience in writing  typical macintosh applications did not go much
further than  what I have been doing so far on the NeXT, I am not sure as to
whether it would be reasonable to hope on something like that becoming 
available one day.


some professional developers probably already gave it a thought.
maybe one of them will take the time to explain me whether this
is more than just a dream. I suspect that since both machines are
motorola based , it should not be too hard, but....
