631.0. "Steve Jobs' latest NeXt pc." by BAGELS::FINNERTY () Thu Oct 13 1988 13:28

        Anybody see the latest, long-awaited (3 yrs) Steve Jobs' creation
        announced yesterday in San Francisco.....

        His latest SUPER DUPER personal computer from his new company NeXT ??

        What I saw on the TV news, the monitor looked very Real-time animation
        (like tv) and very VERY high resolution...  What he pulled out of
        his neat little carrying case for the big show and audience was what
        almost looks like the MACintosh on the outside (I wonder where he got
        the idea)... But I guess the insides and how super fast it is - it's 
        a totally new ballgame for pc's now ....
        Oh YEHH .... Price mentioned was .... ~ $6500  I think I heard.

        Anybody Know more or have any comments...  
        How do you think this latest (commodity?) pc will look for Digital
        in the face of our recently announced deal with reselling Tandy 
        personal pc's (ughh) ???

    I presume that there is already a discussion of this (and most of
    the rest of our competitors) in ASIMOV::MARKETING...
631.2Yes, please...DR::BLINNGeneral EclecticFri Oct 14 1988 14:336
        This is being actively discussed in ASIMOV::MARKETING, see topic
        576 for example.  Since this doesn't relate in any obvious way to
        "The Digital Way of Working", please direct further discussions to
        MARKETING.
