   Yeh, but for those users the Macintrash is nearly as good, and it's a lot
   cheaper (especially since Apple just cut the prices from absolutely outrageous
   to merely scandalous). And as a UNIX Workstation the NeXT has competition from
   RISC machines (of course the same is true of the A3000UX, but you don't need
   to run UNIX on your A3000).

The NeXT still fairs well in the price/performance area, but I do
think HP would question that.
