Next is a company that Steve Jobs helped get off the ground after he left apple / got fired from apple.

Founded NeXT Software Inc., which created really cool hardware that exploited the full potential of Object Oriented technologies. NeXT technologies made programmers' (and users') lives a whole lot easier, thus giving them more leisure time to go catch the latest Pixar release.

Sold NeXT to Apple in 1997.

I know that was a while back for some of us
