> One of their best acquisitions ever in my opinion… NeXT? But yes, I completely get what you’re saying, I just couldn’t resist. It was an amazingly long sighted strategic move, for sure.

I almost feel like NeXT was a reverse acquisition, like Apple became NeXT with an Apple logo.

  That was true, but look at https://www.apple.com/leadership/ https://www.apple.com/leadership/ today. Craig Federighi is a notable NeXT alum. And... I think he might be the only one left in leadership. NeXT was a comparatively small company compared to Apple.
