I am interested in organizing a computer system for a small business. It
would need at least 6 terminals (e.g., VT100s) and 2 standard impact
printers connected to one computer. What hardware and/or software would
I need to accomplish this on a NeXT? Where can I get it?
 
A couple other questions: Will NeXT sell machines ONLY through
universities, or can businesses purchase them, too? Is there a limit
to how many a student/business can purchase? When is System 1.0 supposed
to become available? And finally, has anyone, like for instance
Microsoft, promised NeXT versions of their software?
 
Please send replies to rwf@mts.rpi.edu. Thanks.
