- No. This is mere marketing hype from Borland in their war with MicroSoft.
-
- I'd say NeXT is the leader, with their NeXTSTEP 3.0 environment and the
- applications from 3rd parties that run on NeXTSTEP today, in addition to the
- objectware that is available to fold into programs built on the NeXTSTEP
- environment.
-
- Given the availability of NeXTSTEP on the 486 platform in 93, the growth for
- NeXT should be explosive. NeXT has more OOPS based software than Borland.
-
- Course it all boils down to what does Borland mean by "the leader"?
