	Dear NeXTarians,

  since my old computer, an ATARI ST, has irreversibly been damaged while
I tried to modify its hardware last week (shouldn't have done this - I
knew I'm much more in software than in hardware), it seems I will have to
get a new machine. As I'm a computer science student, main subject
operating systems, I feel quite an attraction towards more powerful machines
(typing this on a SUN SPARCstation 2).
  I read some very enthusiastic articles about the NeXT computers in some
German magazines, so this machine looks quite interesting to me. The other
machine I'd be interested in is the ATARI TT - please, no flames for that,
but it's much cheaper, can run UNIX, too, and ... I can use ALL the soft-
ware I already bought for my ST. And software for the NeXT isn't as cheap,
is it?
  But to decide correctly, I will have to SEE one of these fantastic NeXTs
and play a little bit with it, for example, to find out how fast it does its
screen-redraw (could probably take long as it uses display-postscript, I
bet).

  Sorry, if this question has already been answered many times before - I
read this newsgroup for the first time in the middle of last week. So here
it is:

  DOES ANYONE OUT THERE KNOW ANY NAMES AND ADDRESSES OR PHONE NUMBERS OF
STORES SELLING NeXTs INSIDE GERMANY??? Till now, i found NONE!!! HELP!!!

  Many thanks in advance.


	Michael
