Sounds cool. Many of the greatest design concepts are stopped... not
because of bugs, not because of tiredness of developers, but because of the
only thing obstructing innovation: Money.

Actually they (NeXT) had started work on a dual Motorola 88000 machines
before NeXT dropped out of the hardware biz. Some former NeXT hardware
guys went on to form a company called FirePower to design PREP?, CHRP?
compliant PPC computers. They released a few but were then bought by
Motorola and of course we all know what happened to
PREP/CHRP/WhatEVER.
