I think that you should only compare products that are:

AVAILABLE and IN ABOUT THE SAME PRICE RANGE

I am not very interested in comparing the 68040 A3000UX until it exists.

And as it seems that 68030 A3000UX is about the same price that 68040
NeXT it is not difficult to decide which one to take (for me!). There is
nothing very special in the A3000UX, after all. (I don't care for a
forthcoming "the only right thing" Unix you were talking about.)
