@businessblurb: Sharon Weinberg talks about the story behind a CIA contract and Steve Jobs The contract for thousands of NEXT computers gave Steve Job’s struggling company the runway and revenue it needed to survive. A few years later Apple aquired NEXT and Steve returned as CEO of Apple Yt // dannyjones #stevejobs #apple #iphone #Tech #entrepreneur

Ryan :

Yeah, a lot of people don’t know that the Unix-based OS developed at Next is what macOS and iOS are based on…to this very day. Apple’s legacy Macintosh operating system that they were using prior to the Next acquisition was phased out entirely.

Cool, Cool, Cool…Carson :

This is literally the biggest non-story I’ve ever heard. There’s next computers were basically what you’d consider to be Silicon graphics that helped create render man OS for Pixar. There’s no story here

⚡GuitarMarkTX ⚡ :

macOS and Linux are distant cousins—both are Unix-like operating systems

j2sweet :

I heard this when I was younger because the computers were harder to hack vs windows os

Bad.Friend :

Apple would bought Next either way.

topher_atx :

The world wide web was invented on a NeXT computer. It makes sense that Steve Jobs would try to sell to the government because he had a lot of success at Apple selling Apple IIs to schools.

arizokie :
