Some friends and I are seriously considering NeXTstations - especially since we have Ethernet (yes, genuine, BONA-FIDE E-net) in our dorm rooms. We have many questions such as: The quality of XNeXT. What size drive to get - we may boot off other cubes on campus! I am worried about the availability of software (reasonable $$$) Also, we will want to use our NeXTstations at home during the summer is this feasible?
