Much cheaper to buy one of those 17 year old Next computers (although they've held their value remarkably well, as a matter of fact).

Edit: cgi.ebay.com

JMHO.

re But NeXT, MAC and the rest never opened their architectures and charged premium prices to their locked-in customer base. They suffered the fate of everyone who didn't "get" the volume paradigm - they got marginalized to a few fanatics. The difference is that I could always get a volume WinTel system for 30 cents on the dollar against a MAC - something Apple did not correct until a few years ago.

which proves how dumb the M$FT bashers are, ranging from Reno & Jacskon to several folks on this thread.
