	Unfortunately, I started this project a little too late to
give the voters a really long time to think about and vote for the choice
products of 1992. However, next year the organization of the NUCA will
be better. Also I'm working on getting the trophies finished. I hope
to have them out to all the winners ASAP.
	Drum roll... And the winners are...
Well, the people have spoken and the best NeXTSTEP product of 1992 is
NeXTSTEP 3.0. Kudos to NeXT for putting out a really nice product
	The really hot products this year were NeXTSTEP 3.0, Virtuoso,
DataPhile and the Zyxel modem. These products received the greatest
number of votes in multiple categories. NeXT did very well; they won
in the Overall Product of the Year, Software Development, Software
Wordprocessing (actually the most common response to this category was
"What wordprocessor?"), Software Utility, Hardware Display, Hardware
Mass Storage, Hardware Printing/Output, Hardware Video, Hardware
Other, and Overall Best Hardware categories.
	Altsys' Virtuoso was the single best product in that it won in
the Software Desk Top Publishing, Software Graphics and Overall Best
Software categories.
	Congratulations to all of the winners!

(The complete results may be found on the orst and/or purdue FTP site
in the submissions directory--if I can get it up there!)
