   FLAME ON:  Isn't that interesting?  When Next charges so much for a
   machine that you couldn't afford one even if you sold your sister into
   white slavery, its understandable because its "production quality".  
   When Apple does it, they're a bunch of greedy capitalist bastards.

Please read Bruce Webster's article in the January 1991 issue of
MacWorld for a price comparison of Macs and NeXTs.  Your facts seem to
be wrong.  Also, would you care to post the prices Apple was charging
at this time last year for the Macs?  NeXT offers an incredible
machine at a good price.
