Hi.

We're considering buying a pair of Fibermux Crossbow hubs for our
network (PC's + Macs).  I was reading over the marketing hype,
and when I saw the interface for the PC version of LightWatch I
had to wonder if they had seen a NeXT before...talk about look
and feel similarities...  Even the Sun version looks like they 
got a few UI ideas from NeXT, although with Motif windows.  But
if you haven't seen it I'd recommend checking it out - it looks
so much like NeXTStep (tm) that I wonder if they didn't develop it 
on a NeXT and then just write (copy) the interface for PC (this
runs on DOS).

So what does the net think?  IS the sincerest form of flattery
imitation...?

Regards,
Thor
