Thanks, netpeople. You've been wonderful as usual. Briefly, most said to go for it. A few said no, get the Mac. The basic reasons were about what you'd expect if you know the two machines well. The Mac might be easier for a novice to keep alive, and more likely to offer some particular piece of software. The NeXT has the fundamental Word Processing and Spreadsheet, and is feature for feature a better machine. The main contribution to the decision that we hadn't thought of is that the NeXT is a better status symbol, probably, at least til they go belly up 8-) Thanks again. lee
