BusinessLand officially received word today that IBM would be offering
both NextStep and Motif on their soon-to-be-announced RISC machines
(RIOS?).  Better yet, they will also be offering NextStep (in addition
to Presentation Manager) on their PS/2's.

The announcement of NextStep on the PS/2 is really significant.  If
all goes well, this means there will be rather many more Next-
compatible machines in the world.  

Our sources say the new RISC machines will probably be announced "next
week."
