Anyone interested to comment ?

(1)p124    Daewoo plans color Next station

It appears that Next, Inc. has finally given in to pressure to
change its all-black-and-white tune. Next Co-founder Steve
Jobs has promised a color monitor by the end of this year for his
company's workstations, and now Korean PC maker Daewoo 
Telecom Co. Ktd. is jummping on board the Next color bandwagon.
Daewoo says it will have a color display system for the Next 
computer by sometime early next year. The image processing 
system will typically sell for between $30,000 and $60,000
                                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^   
and will be distributed in the U.S. by Leading Edge Porducts,
Inc., according to Daewoo officals.

                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^     
instruction set computing technology.
