I've got a NeXT turbo slab and I've used this software. It's a pretty convincing clone. Fundamental protocols have changed so much since the next days that it's hard to get it online. My 1Gb switch doesn't mind its 10Mb/s connection but even things like NFS, DNS or DHCP have moved away from what the NeXT knows how to do. There's a very old version of ssh available but modern ssh refuses to talk to it so you're back to telnet which is fine - the encryption overhead is unreasonable on a 68k. I run a special proxy machine that accommodates it and it has compatible versions of these on it. The newest browser you can use is onniweb and part of the proxy is dehttps'ing things ... It's quite a bit of work. Not even TIFF formats are the same. Imagemagick does not support the format the NeXT exports. The easiest way of getting graphics off is actually to "print it" as a PostScript file and then ftp it over or cp it using an older NFS. The entire interface is PostScript based which is why it has high compatibility with Sun NeWS (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NeWS https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NeWS). I've long suspected there's a way to go from NeXT via NeWS -> NeWS/2 on OS/2 and then VNC to a modern machine but I've never taken the time to set up the pipeline. It does have a SCSI chain but not only has all that hardware become really expensive but it also doesn't get you much unless you really want more local storage. One of the interesting things is when you export screenshots they'll come across in color. I've wondered if there's modern ways of getting this device to emit color with some cheap hardware but I don't know enough about the pipeline. I also have ViolaWWW on an HPUX machine. That thing is another story
