PC Dealer and Computer Reseller, March 24th:

"Apple [...] has committed itself to an update to the Mac System 7 operating
system (OS) which will run on 486-based PCs. [...]  System 7.1, codenamed
Star Trek, has been completely rewritten for the Intel environment.  The
latest version of the Apple OS co-exists with a new version of Novell/DR DOS.
Sources close to Apple suggest that its PC OS will be positioned head on
against Windows 3.1."

and in another article:

"Apple's clone-free reign may be over, as the first shipments of a
Mac-compatible system arrive from US manufacturer Nutek. [...]  Nutek's
system is allegedly not compatible with popular programs like Excel.

"Nutek has a motherboard and systems software for $899, and has already
picked up European orders.  Its standalone desktop is the Duet, which yokes
an Intel 486/33 chip with a Motorola 68030/33.  This is unpriced as yet and
not readily available.  Operating system software arrives on disk and in ROM,
and a video controller chip supplies the main logic functions.  The user
interface software is based on Motif, and Nutek licensed Nubus technology
from Texas Instruments."
