Looking back to NeXTSTEP

Here is a nice, nostalgic flashback "preview" of NeXTSTEP v4 from the days when the rest of the world was still harrassed by Windows 3something (I think) while we happy few users of NeXTSTEP were spoilt with a state of the art operating system which was an easily recognisable precursor to Apple's current OS X (NeXT has been bought by Apple). Most of the core concepts were in place back then already, and I fondly remember having my black magnesium pizza box up in Edinburgh ... see what a silly computer screenshot can do to you?!?

Wow! The interest for this video was far beyond our expectations.
