After playing around with some demos on the archives, I've noticed that
some of the European software being produced for the NeXT is quite
good and/or shows a lot of promise (TIFFany as an example). However, 
there seem to be complications for acquiring such software (and a little 
price gouging going on as well).

If some US distributor would pick up on some of these apps, and make a deal
to offer them at a reasonable price, I think all of the NeXT community (and
that distributor :-) ) could benefit. At the very least, it could provide 
a nudge to some US developers who are turning out buggy products (or no 
products at all). At the very best, it would give all users access to 
some very good and very _needed_ apps.

BTW, the Feb/Mar 93 NeXTworld (wait a second -- I got that issue at the
first of Jan?) has an article that discussed some of the overseas 
development that's occurring.
