Wow, a new record for erroneous remarks about a NeXT in 100 words or less.
First, the optical disk is no longer standard.  Second, the floppy drives
come with all the standard NeXT configurations.  Third, the 2.88 MB 
floppy is compatible with both 720K and 1.44 MB MS-DOS formats.  Can you
say the same for Mac floppies?  You are correct though that NeXT users
have a choice between color and monochrome.  But what machine doesn't?
