Some magazine (info-world, pc-week?)  was discussing the next on the back page.
They started out discussing a (forbes?) article that mentioned the higher 
volumes of Next and attributed most of them to Upgrade boards and heavily

The (info-world or pc-week) article went on to say some good things about the
next and such..
