   SUN

   George said that Sun isn't all bad.  For one thing, Sun is doing a lot
   to legitimize Unix on the desktop.  [See NT below!]

   As for porting NeXTstep to the Sun SPARCstation, apparently Steve Jobs
   said NeXT would do the port "if `they' will pay for it."

This is not quite correct. George quoted Steve as saying NeXT would do
the port "if `they` were willing to pay the price".

Which has many, many more possible meanings ....
