Overlord Jobs doing his thing.  This OS in 1992 was where OS X is right now.  Gotta love it.

I saw about half of it when it was posted on slashdot.  Then I needed to go to bed.  For 1992 this was fricken amazing.  Ahead of it's time.

The NeXT is still on my list of machines I'd like to own, along with an Amiga, Atari ST, and IIgs.  I think I'll have to pass until I have a room I can dedicate to that kind of crap though.  I'd like to have a room just with classic computers and consoles.

 You just need a 2.5 metre desk in your bedroom like me. Might have to get rid of some shelves when I get the double bed in here later this week.
