If you shop for a CD-ROM, what specifications are you looking for? What kinds of software you can get for NeXT? Although NeXTConnection does sell CD-ROM for NeXT, some third party CD-ROM seems to have better price and performance. But without knowing if they are suitable to use on NeXT, plunge ~500$ is not very wise. Besides CD-ROM without any software won't be of any use. I will summarize if people are interested. -- Chin Wu chin@sg1.chem.upenn.edu
