Rocky Mountain NeXT Users Group, in cooperation with the PC Users Group of Colorado, will be sponsoring a "Windows NT vs. NEXTSTEP shoot-out." We hope to provide a concise overview of these competing technologies with side by side demonstrations of both. Tim Carlin (formerly of NeXT Inc.) of Spatial Technologies will demonstrate NEXTSTEP. John Stoddard (co-author of the new book "Inside Windows NT") of Micro Decisionware will demonstrate Microsoft's Windows NT. The presentation will be followed by a question and answer session. What's comparable to NEXTSTEP? "How about Windows NT? It, too, is a microkernel-based 32-bit multitasking system for networking environments and requires top-of-the-line hardware. But NEXTSTEP is more complete, already established by users and VARs and it is easier to develop applications for NEXTSTEP than for NT. NT's interface is Windows, which is already familiar to millions of users. NEXTSTEP's interface is better, in my opinion, but it does not come with a large supply of pretrained users." -- BYTE, August 1993 *** Door PRIZES include a FREE copy of NeXTSTEP Evaluation Kit *** The NEXTSTEP Evaluation Kit includes: - NeXTSTEP Release 3.1 for Intel Processors which includes the full NEXTSTEP User product and documentation; - NEXTSTEP Developer CD ROM which includes NeXTSTEP's visual application construction tools and reusable object kits, as well as a 50% off coupon to purchase full technical documentation; - The NEXTSTEP Advantage Kit which includes a booklet, a video cassette and a diskette with sample software to introduce users to the benefits of application development with NEXTSTEP; - NEXTSTEP Programming, a book by Garfinkel & Mahoney, which provides users a thorough explanation of NEXTSTEP application development using a tutorial approach.
