Notice : The binaries are for the NeXT machine. Steve Jobs was the CEO of NeXT computers, so in a way, he had a direct impact on creating the web. The NeXT machines were sweet computers, they had two in the lab that I worked at in the University of Alberta, along with two SGI machines. They didn't have enough money for a NeXT machine for me, so I built my own Linux machine with 3.5" floppies using Slackware. Those were heady days.
