    ...picked up the latest price lists from the Stanford Bookstore today.
    [etc]
    the minimum model is $3153.

    The price lists from the UCLA Bookstore finally came out today.
    The minimum model is $3449.

    This brings up an interesting question.  Does NeXT, like Apple, limit
    each student to buying one machine at a given University?

I talked to the NeXT rep on our campus (UCSD) today and THEY said, "...we have
one price as our education discount."  One can judge for one's self the
believeability of this statement.

Our price, by the way, is around $3900.  Hummm...
