The Fly on the

content. A
Look Back: The NeXTstation is a 9-page HTMLified
rendition of an advertisement for the NeXTstation

machine was the final hardware item that NeXT put out
before feeling the pain of the market and going
software-only. The slab-shaped,
magnesium-encased, 68040-based unit was, and is, a
thing of beauty, indeed. And the latest version
of its OS is known as "MacOS X Server," and is the
basis for almost all of the forthcoming Mac OS X core.
