  • Nextdimension State-Of-The-Art Color Capabilities
    NeXT dimension is an accelerated, 32-bit color board that gives the NeXTcube NeXTdimension state-of-the-art color capabilities. NeXT dimension was designed for people who want the most advanced color PostScript system available. It's ideal for high-end publishing, graphics, video, and animation applications. The engineers at NeXT have integrated a 32-bit, true-color display function, a 64-bit RISC-based dedicated graphics coprocessor, video capture and display, and a high-performance JPEG compression coprocessor-all on one board. Its Intel i860 RISC-based microprocessor, operating at 33 MHz, runs full-color PostScript and has been optimized for our coprocessing environment, increas­ ing drawing speed eight to twelve times. This enables graphics applications to process images in near real time. The JPEG compression capabilities let you compress and play back still- and full-motion video from a hard disk drive.

    NeXTstep Release 3.0: Strengthening NeXT's Object-Oriented Leadership January 1992 Object-oriented software systems qualify as the first revolution in desktop computing technology since the graphical user interface. While everyone in the industry talks about object-oriented programming, only one object-oriented system Ð NeXT Computer, Inc.'s NeXTstep Ð is shipping today. NeXTstep's object-oriented environment dramatically simplifies the development and delivery of custom and commercial applications, including revolutionary applications never before possible. NeXT created its combined graphical user interface (GUI) and application development environment specifically to speed the development of commercial, "shrink-wrapped" software applications for the NeXT platform. This strategy has worked as planned: More than 240 high-quality productivity applications are currently shipping. The company discovered, however, that corporate and government customers will not switch to NeXT computers simply for off-the-shelf application software, even if it is twice as good as what they currently use, but that large numbers of them have switched to NeXT for its unsurpassed environment for creating mission-critical custom applications. With NeXTstep, in-house programmers are quickly developing sophisticated applications specifically tailored to their company and industry Ð applications that provide a true competitive edge Ð up to 10 times faster than possible with other platforms, and thus with less investment. For example, many Wall Street financial organizations have embraced NeXT and NeXTstep as a competitive weapon in an industry where fast decisions and actions are fundamental to success. (Please refer to the document "Who Buys NeXT Computers?" for more information on specific NeXT customers.) The combination of quickly developed and widely deployed custom NeXTstep Release 3.0 backgrounder, page 2 applications, plus great off-the-shelf productivity applications running alongside the custom applications, provides NeXT's compelling advantage in commercial markets today.
