   In the NeXT article in this months Forbes it said that even the figure of
   8000 personal workstations (I think) was high since more than half of 
   those sales figures were for upgrade boards to the 040.  It also said
   that the NeXT factory was only operating at 1/10 of its capacity.  This
   talk of back orders sounds a little fishy to me.  I get the idea that
   NeXT may not be around about this time NeXT year.

Someone yesterday said there were 1500 upgrade boards included in that
figure.  Hmmm.  Have to read it for myself.  And yes, as I have said
the factory is capable of producing 100,000 computers a year.
