Hi,
And where was it the Steve Jobs worked after leaving apple before coming back?
"With the layoffs of 1985 Jobs lost a power struggle with John Sculley, and after a short hiatus reappeared with new funding to create the NeXT corporation."

Hmmm interesting.... : )

Ah since when does iBook = NeXT ??

Being that NexT =! an OS, NeXTSTEP was the OS , which moved to OpenStep as a
joint venture with Sun (iirc) for a very short period.


OSX has some very LOOSE nexstep fundamentals ie some of the FSH and app
bundle concepts etc , but that's where the similarities end , OSX has a
different kernel/toolchain/FSH/GUI etc etc etc .

thanks, not that i am sure i would convert an ibook to linux as it is
already running Unix
I would not bother putting Linux on an iBook, as NeXT is a really good
version of Unix (unless you are concerned with freedom :)
