Thanks to all for replying to my request concerning desktop
publishing.  The results were not surprising ( much as I was hoping ).
The answers only supported my original beliefs that the Next machine
would make a fine desktop publishing system.  The Next appears to be a
good choice for our application.  Apparently, they are in decent
financial health, they do have the Digital Librarian for
"documentation" management tool ( and others are available from other
vendors ), they produce a very productive publishing environment,
etc.... In other words, it is a very nice desktop publishing system.

Thanks again to the following people for their input:
