Miles reminisced about the NeXT Cubes, saying, "Running at a blistering 25 MHz, these things were quick and had an amazing GUI. For command-line junkies, these were dreamy because you could Telnet into them from the campus dial-up service and work in the marvelous universe of a BSD Unix command line." This highlights the appeal of the NeXT Cubes both in terms of performance and user experience.
Miles reflected on his experience with Emacs, stating, "I could sit in comfort writing papers using LaTeX in emacs. I could also access printers in the computer lab, so my Uni work looked great." This quote emphasizes the productivity and convenience he found using these tools.
He discussed the challenges of using Emacs, explaining, "At the time of this tale, I was a young man and like many of that ilk, not fussed about tidiness. But I decided that learning how to clean things up in Unix was a good place to start." This indicates a personal growth journey in managing his digital workspace.
