Comparing a 603 from 94 to a pentium pro is not nice. And you seem to be forgetting about the SMP which if I recall made BeBOX the only SMP workstation out there in 95. 21164A and SGI Octane came years later. There was amd OpenSMP but there were no motherboards, at least not untill 97/8.

NeXTSTEP was Jobs attempt to sell $10k workstations to education.
And yes, money talks. Nothing to do with sales pitches or technical prowess of any kind. Let's not forget ObjC and the sheer amount of stress and madness it caused. BeBOX was waaay ahead of NeXTCUBE (in fact it was up there with alphas of the same era) and BeOS was waaay ahead of NeXTSTEP.

Which would've been just fine of an explanation if he hadn't farted out of his mouth the fuel efficiency conundrum!

Btw there's nothing cheap about their "airline" (air cattle line? air bus line?) - someone did a piece on purchasing every option that would be included on a NORMAL AIRLINE and concluded it's more expensive. When factoring in travel to stanstead instead of elisabeth/picadilly to heathrow it gets worse in time and money.
