I would like to get some information about comming Mac-versions,
especially ones with a large screen. At our department we are
planning to buy new terminals/workstations (I can't wait to throw
my old ugly VT100 out the window) for our UNIX-system. One alternative
is SUN workstations, but this is a costly one. As I have a Mac myself
I would not mind using a Mac with a large screen as my terminal/work-
station (I think the screen of today is to small to use
for regular work, I guess it would kill ones eyes).
Other related important questions are networking and fileservers.
I think I would prefer one large hard disk used as a server rather
than having one small hard disk for every Mac (is it reasonable?).
I tried to get some information from Apple, Sweden, but they were
not willing to say anything about what is to come, unless we were
prepared to talk OEM-quantities. Maybe there are some Apple-people
out there that recently looked into the crystal ball, and are
more willing to say what they saw.
