Well, considering that you continually flame NeXT and its computers and its software in this forum, I'm surprised that you still want to buy one. However, if I were NeXT, I'd hope you bought a Sun, too, if only so you would then post flames to comp.sys.sun instead. One lost sale would be a good bargain. :-), sort of. -- Glenn Reid RightBrain Software glenn@heaven.woodside.ca.us NeXT/PostScript developers ..{adobe,next}!heaven!glenn 415-851-1785 (fax 851-1470)
