Just happened to catch the Discovery channel's "nextstep" program. The
episode was discussing the age when children benefit by "interacting" with
computers. (They said 18 months.) Oddly enough, there was an unmistakable
NeXT slab in the background and one of the mousepads had an unmistakable
"NeXT" logo. NeXT on nextstep. BTW, the producing company (Chronicle) is
a SF company (I always thought nextstep came from Australia); so maybe
nextstep does have it's name's origins in NEXTSTEP somewhere.
