   Given that after the PC the Mac must have one of the largest shares
   of the market.  is NeXTs move likely to be to create a version of
   NeXT Step that runs on the Mac?

   Any one want to comment on how easy/dificult this would be to
   impliment?

NeXTstep will never run on 99.98% of the PCs already in existance nor
will on anything less than a Mac Quadra.  The hardware requirements
for NeXTstep are just too great.
