Axel,
   If Businessland can not expect to easily recoup the cost of TV advertising
on the new NeXT machines due a combination of low prices and low sales, then
who can blame them for not advertising. As far as I have heard, the real
rush on NeXT machines at Businessland was on their firesale of cubes. Once
they were gone things slacked off. It seems most people who are interested
will probably be academic and will go through educational sales anyway!
