Hey Victor. Thanks again for a wonderful podcast, but you missed two awesome operating systems that Apple had to choose from when it was looking for its next-gen OS. NeXTSTEP and BeOS.

These were two operating systems that definitely had the potential at the time to bring Apple out of the brink of death. One survived, while the other sadly faded away.

Claudio thanks for the great upgrades. I agree I missed these but this show was done before I was even a Mac fan for real.

Gotcha…..maybe for a sequel to this great episode? Covering how Apple had to make the decision between BeOS and NeXT?

Have a great weekend…and be sure to save some cafesito Cubano for me!
