The only thing NeXT will admit to is that NS486 runs well with Dell and Compaq, with either the new Dell/Intel video card and with a C&T Wingine. The system engineer I spoke with said that the goal is to get NS486 to run on all popular flavors of PCs. But this is all old news. I did hear from this same engineer that it should be out Q2, not Q3. But then everything slips, doesn't it. -- Yan Fang-Magnusson Ph.D. candidate, philosophy, University of Utah yf5990@u.cc.utah.edu yanfang@cc.utah.edu (NeXTmail)
