	Agreed... and filling... Slowly.

	And NeXTSTEP ported to those machines that are already on  
scientists desktops.  Suns, especially.
	If NeXTSTEP itself was developed on Sun3's before the first NeXT  
prototypes (as one source has told me), then this is not a giant leap.  Or  
even a small one.  But I'm sure the guys at NeXT are all way ahead of us  
already on this score.  They're no bozo's.
