: forgive my ignorance, but on what hardware does NeXTStep run? I know it
: runs on NeXT boxes, but will it run on Intel?
Yes, there is NeXTSTEP for Intel, Release 3.3 being the newest. It really 
is *very* nice, I mean, almost you can't do a GUI any nicer. Chews up a 
lot of resources, though, and has a rather small hardware compatibility list.

I have played around with it a little bit, but I haven't had the time to 
try programming it so far. From all I've heard, it must be very nice to 
program.
