Remember NeXT? Steve Job's next big thing after he left Apple in the 80's? Weblog Mac on Intel reports [1] they've gotten NeXT OpenStep [2] up and running on a new Intel-based MacBook Pro. OpenStep was developed in the early '90s to let NeXT's NeXTStep OS run on Solaris SPARC workstations. NeXTStep, which dates back to the late 80's was a Mach-kernel based Unix with a GUI that later evolved into Rhapsody and eventually OS X. GNUStep [3] continues a live, open-source and developing GNU release of OpenStep.
