Did you know that the educational price of a NeXT is $3000?  And a Sun
SparcStation is also priced in that range?  So after all this time Apple
has lowered the price of a Mac II upgrade to $2600.  I'm not impressed.

For $400 more, I'll take either a Sun or a NexT!

Someone mentioned starting a class action suit to force Apple to lower
the price on these upgrades, say to under $1000.  Its soooo tempting!
