no need to look, since so many of them present themselves, and in such
huge quantities that it's hard deal with all of them.

No, you intended to post made up bullshit lies and misinformation.

There wasn't actually a NeXTSTEP at the time Apple bought NeXT. It was
OPENSTEP at that point AFAIK. (I used OPENSTEP 4.2 Mach for Intel for a
while.)

WebObjects was the only thing still making any money for NeXT. 

BTW, Pixar used both Sun and SGI workstations at the time they did Toy
Story. I bet that Jobs wasn't thrilled about that. :-)

True, though I think that was only a name change, it was still NS_ under
the hood.

The Pixar image computer REQUIRED either a Sun workstation or an SGI.
I'm not sure why you would think Jobs would not like this.

But by the time Toy Story was in full production, the Pixar image
computer was gone and the whole shop ran on Sun and SGI.

it still is ns* under the hood.

from a site still stuck in the 1990s,
<http://toastytech.com/guis/openstep.html>
  NeXTStep was the operating system created for the NeXT computer 
  (a Motorola 68K based machine), and later ported to to the Intel
  x86/PC platform when NeXT shifted focus from being a hardware 
  company to a software company. OPENSTEP is the descendant of 
  NeXTStep, although technically "OPENSTEP" refers to a set of portable
  APIs based on those of NeXTStep that NeXT made available on Mach
  (The Unix-ish core that NeXTStep ran on), Windows NT, and Solaris.
  These screen shots are of OPENSTEP/Mach for x86.

Because they weren't using NeXT computers. :-)
