The color NeXT's are so expensive because of the monitors. They're $2000 after the educational discount. Does anyone know if you can connect a cheap color monitor the the NeXTstation Color? *** I get the feeling that many people would choose a crappy 13" color monitor over the 17" grey-scale monitor. *** If this is true, NeXT might want to consider the non-intuitive thing and sell low-resolution color monitors. There a too many Ted Turners in the world to overlook the low-end color market. -Mike
