To see that, look at the apps which almost were:
- Pages.app by Pages --- amazing DTP tool which was bought by Anderson Financial Services, but then killed off when Rhapsody went away
- Macromedia Freehand --- unfortunately, they continued with their in-house toolkit to make the Mac/Windows versions, since it would have been too much work to revive the old Altsys Virtuoso code
- Quantrix Financial Modeller --- at least this still survived, but be sure to take a seat before looking up the cost per seat
- FrameMaker --- the NeXT version was the nicest one I ever used, and with Display PostScript, was far nicer to work with
- WordPerfect --- the NeXT version was far nicer than the Windows, would have been nice to see that come back
- Stone Create (and the other Stone apps) --- nice assortment of various tools which would have been quite nice to have
Lots of other way cool NeXT apps which should have done better in the market.
