This is Egg-on-my-face in view mode; [Up]


Date: Sun 19-Dec-1989 23:43:03 From: 6600pete@ucsbuxa Subject: Egg on my face OK, enough already! It becomes more and more apparent that the guy who did the background spiel on the NeXT for our campus had his head up his butt. Enough people have told me how wrong I am on the hardware issues involved with the NeXT that I think I will remember my mistakes longer than the NeXT or any other currently envisioned computer is around. I've messed with the software environment of the NeXT a fair bit, but I will freely admit to never having opened one up and looking inside. Additional admission of guilt: having a campus rep with his head up his butt is no excuse for my ignorance! I should have known better than to trust one account of the situation. And to those of you who saw this nonsense unfold in comp.sys.next, I'm sorry any of this got cross-posted into your group. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pete Gontier | InterNet: 6600pete@ucsbuxa.ucsb.edu, BitNet: 6600pete@ucsbuxa Editor, Macker | Online Macintosh Programming Journal; mail for subscription Hire this kid | Mac, DOS, C, Pascal, asm, excellent communication skills
