Could anybody give more some Info on the above.  I take it NeXTStep will
eventually be available for Intel bases 486 machines.  Will NeXTStep run
with a UNIX OS on the 486 ?  Will applications written using NExt Machines
be then Ported to the I486 ?.  Will NeXTStep really cut into the OS/2 market.

I am thinking about purchasing a NeXT machine for my own use (since I
would like to become proficient in UNIX and I believe NeXT will eventually
gain a much bigger share of the industry than they do now.  Currently I use a
I386 machine with OS/2, TCP/IP, NFS
