Short Background on the Company:

NeXT Computer, Inc. was founded by Steve Jobs in 1985 after he left Apple Inc. The company aimed to develop high-end, innovative workstations and software for the education and business sectors. While NeXT didn't achieve mainstream success, its technologies played a crucial role in the development of the World Wide Web. NeXT's operating system, NeXTSTEP, served as the foundation for macOS. In 1997, Apple acquired NeXT, bringing Steve Jobs back to the company, which eventually led to the renaissance of Apple with products like the iMac, iPod, iPhone, and iPad. These original NeXT manuals offer a rare glimpse into the early days of this iconic tech journey.
