Lines: 16 Speaking of rumors and of slow sales, I heard the following : Apparently, sales of NeXT are not going well for Businessland, and they are lowering their price. A friend of mine contacted Businessland recently, and they were ready to give him a special price because they were trying to fulfill their quota of *15 machines* for the quarter. That's regioanl sales, I assume for the Upper Midwest. The NeXT is a great machine, I love it. But as long as it's not being sold seriously, it just ain't gonna make it.
