I often pick up things from various Web-sites and people and don't write down the references. I'm not too sure if the entire team left Sun and went to next (at least one stayed) but NeWS *was* based on PostScript, and *was* around before NeXT. Circumstantial :(

GhostScript does not *actually* interpret PostScript, it interprets a language called "GostScript", which has two commands (IIRC) different from PostScript.
