I've gotten many emails regarding Q3A for Mac OS X
Public Beta. Yes, we're working on

Server before it (which basically is the latest version of OpenStep, which was the next stage in NEXTSTEP's evolution)), going as far as to state that he will

DOOM was developed entirely on NEXTSTEP
systems, the development platform that Carmack has
most enjoyed. OS X, of course, leverages that
technology and then some.)
