NeXT was the company Steve Jobs founded after being fired from Apple by John Sculley. Jobs was later rehired after it was clear Sculley wasn't helping Apple go anywhere.
I think that's right...

I'm confused by the narrator's pronounciation of the word "solder". He says it with an almost silent "l", "saa-der" instead of "sol-der". Is that common American pronounciation?

@da9000 3 year late note, though, but you might find the caps on your NeXT failing...
-
@Sternhammer yes: "soo der" and "saw der" are common. if you say "soldier" (like an army guy) people will think you are a maroon ;)
-
I've got a different version too... I'll have to see if I can find and share it.
-
Yeah, it's kind of like how the Brits added an "r" to the word "ass" and made it "arse". LOL
-
Yes, Americans always pronounce it as sah-der, even though it's spelled solder. So the l is made to be silent.

Well, Sculley actually did good to Apple (like the PowerBooks), but then came Michael Spindler, the situation got worse, after him came Gil Amelio, and if he hadn't been fired and replaced by Steve Jobs Apple would have been history. Interesting history. We would be looking at Apple a bit like NeXT or Commodore.

Wierd. That's not the origonal video. It didn't have music between the text, and the narrator was different.

There may be pre-production versions floating around, but this is what was distributed to the sales force immediately following the original NeXT intro at Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco. The back half of this tape is all the TV press coverage.
