If I were NeXT, I would not go out and replace developer's keyboards every time a new design comes along. (Maybe NeXT is now replacing developer's keyboard for the ones customers turn in. They get the new versions, we get the good ones.) 8^) /* ** ============================================================================ ** ** Felix A.
