I asked. Naw. There was a group of NeXT people, of different types, who left a  
few weeks ago. They were not all engineers. It was not a planned exodus. The  
folk went in different directions. At least one, Scott Love, went to work with  
Jayson at Millenium.

I'l bet there are frequent shuttles between the larger SF-SJ bay area high-tech  
companies where employees can leave one and go to another. The law up there has  
been high turnover for decades. Thus even if a few NeXTers left for Sun (or  
visa versa; or Apple) I would hardly call it news.

If they took secrets and plans with them, that's news.

Or even cute icons???
