The book really seemed to be targetted at a semi-technical to technical audience that wants to know what the NeXT machine is all about without having to buy it or sit through a sales pitch. -- ----------------- Peter Palij uunet!apexepa!peter Apex Software Corporation peter@apexepa.uucp Phone: (412) 681-4343
