	Don't think it matters.  How many NeXT apps take full advantage of
	NeXTSTEP?  Windows 3.0/3.1 apps will be at least as usable on NT as
	they are on DOS.  Same is true of non-Windows DOS apps.  Some
	people will buy NeXTSTEP (486 or '040) because of the available apps.
	Some will buy because of mission-critical apps development capability.
	But what if they didn't have to choose?  What if they could run
	NeXTSTEP apps and develop mission-critical apps under NeXTSTEP on
	their NT machines.  Wouldn't that attract a bunch?
