Izolo, ngoFebruwari 9, zazaliseka Iminyaka engama-24 ukusukela kwiKhompyuter elandelayoInkampani eyadalwa nguSteve Jobs xa wayegxothwa kwinkampani yakhe, uzinikele ngokupheleleyo ekwenzeni isoftware kwaye alibale malunga neshishini lekhompyuter. Inkampani yayibizwa ngokuba yi-NEXT Software, kwaye ukusukela ngala mhla yayijolise kuyo yonke imithombo yayo ekwenzeni isoftware kumaqonga akhoyo.
Ngosuku olufana nezolo ngo-1993, OKULANDELAYO wenze utshintsho olukhulu kwimigaqo-nkqubo yalo, dUkuchaza iinjongo ezintsha kwimodeli yayo yeshishini ukuza kuthi ga ngoku. Olo suku, ngaphezulu koko, lukhunjulwa kabuhlungu njenge "Ngolwesibini omnyama".
"NgoLwesibini oMnyama" yayiyinto enkulu yokulahleka kwesoftware INXTXT isokola njengoko yayihlula-hlula kunye namasebe awahlukeneyo angasayi kuphinda afaneleke kwinkampani esekwe nguMisebenzi. Ke, kubasebenzi abangama-500 inkampani ebenabo, abanye abangama-330 kubo bagxothiwe.
Ngokweengcali zexesha, Olu tshintsho lwendlela lwaluyinto embi eyimfuneko: Nangona iikhompyuter ezimbini ezazisungulwe yinkampani kwintengiso (NeXT Computer, ukusukela ngo-1988, kunye ne-NEXTstation, ukusukela ngo-1990) bezixabiseke kakhulu, azikhange zibambe izabelo zemarike ezinkulu, khange zithengwe kakhulu.
Ngapha koko, kwangowe-1992 Ilahleko yenkampani yezeMisebenzi yayiqikelelwa ukuba yayijikeleze i-40 yezigidi zeedola. Ngaphandle kwento yokuba kwii-90s zakudala, iApple yafumana ubunzima bokuhla kwezoqoqosho, ukuthengisa kwenkampani esekwe eCupertino kwakuphezulu kakhulu kunale ye-NEXT.
«Kuqikelelwa ukuba i-NEXT Computer ithengise malunga neekhompyuter ezingama-50.000, iphelisa ukuthengiswa kwayo ngoFebruwari 1993 (iminyaka esi-7 yomsebenzi). Ngelo xesha, yiloo nto u-Apple angayithengisa ngeveki. "
USteve Jobs wabona ngelo xesha ukuba imali yayinjani kwisoftware. Ngapha koko, into esekwe kwinto, esekwe kwinkqubo yokusebenza esekwe kwi-UNIX eyenzelwe ngu-NEXT kwiminyaka elandelayo, Kwakuyindlela engaphambi koko uninzi lweenkampani zazibonelela ngelo xesha.
Umsebenzi wenkosi ayenzileyo wakwazi ukuyilawula kungekudala emva kokuthengisa le software elandelayo, ebizwa Inyathelo elilandelayo, Ku-Apple uqobo, ukuba yi-CEO yenkampani yakhe kwakhona. Le software yayisisiseko sento eyasetyenziswa ngabasebenzisi baka-Apple njengeMac OS X Server 1.0, eyaphuma ngo-1999.
