Not the case.  You obviously haven't seen the Software and Periferals
Catalog for NeXT.  There are hundreds of big names producing software
that previously you could only find on the mac.  Every program that I
really use on my mac I can also get for the NeXT (example: SoftPC. I
can't imagine how fast that would be).  Plus lots of shareware archived
on several ftp servers that I know of.

Like I keep saying, there is no good argument (besides personal
preference) against NeXT.  And there are many arguments for it.
