Hi folks,

I was wondering if it shouldn t be a good idea for NeXT to deliver their
full  OS release (extensions included) thru a CD ROM disk, as an "option".

Apple is doing this sort of things, and i supposed this is a lot shipper
and safer than having all the os on floppy disks (i don teven talk of the
benefits in time to load the os, nor the practical aspect of having only one
disk).

I am not aware of such "proposition" from NeXT yet.am i wrong ?
