The following NeXT ad is running in the campus paper--the NeXT installment in
the NeXT versus Sun war?

"ENVIRONMENTAL STUDY REVEALS DAMAGING EFFECTS OF SUN.

	Here's a refreshing approach to advertising for you: No opinions, no  
theories, no wishful thinking.  Just the cold hard facts about how today's  
developers and programmers feel about the major platforms.
	It's all here in this report from the independent management consulting  
firm, Booz Allen & Hamilton.
	In a world focused on downsizing, researchers asked more than 100  
professionals to compare the object-oriented NeXTSTEP (TM) development  
environment to other leading platforms, particularly Sun (TM).
	They asked about the quality of applications.  User satisfaction.   
Development speed.  Ease of maintenance.  And application integration.
	We think the results will surprise you.  Mainly because they surprised  
even us.
	At the risk of spoiling the ending, over 82% of those surveyed rated  
NeXTSTEP higher than any other environment.  Not just in one or two areas, but  
in <<every major aspect>>.
	Call us at 1-800-TRY-NeXT and we'll send you a copy.  You'll get a  
better idea of the advantages of NeXTSTEP--standard on all NeXT (TM)  
workstations and coming soon to the world of Intel (R) 486 (TM)-based machines.
	In the meantime, you might make an environmental study of your own.   
Spend some time in the NeXT world.  And avoid prolonged exposure to the Sun.

THE OBJECT IS THE ADVANTAGE."

Could you then make a case that in going over to next you are using a very  
effective sunblock?
