I everyone....

I am looking for people to let me know what they think about the NeXT..

1)  Will it ever become popular?  When people say, DECStations, you
    what they mean.  When you say, NeXT, people go what?

2)  Does it have the capability to grow with the technology of the times?
    If so, will it?  Steve?  ie, Will it become obsoleted?

I am just wondering,.....  I am considering buying one, it has a few nice
features that interest me, but then again so does the Amiga. The Amiga
has a big problem in that it gets little coverage.  I don't want a UNIX
workstation like that....

Any comments?  Opinions?  And yes, even flames....

I will summarize if response makes it worthwhile...
