The NeXT monitor is the best by far, but mouse and keyboard have never felt
that comfy. As for the slab, well I think of it as a black box. I don't
really care what is in it or who's name is on it. I just bought a Dell 450/L
and it is a nice machine, and much cheaper than a NeXTStation. But boy, do
I miss NextStep as an interface in general, networking, and developing.

Intel is the fastest moving CPU company around right now, and I look forward
to the power that's coming. The price cuts of last year were great. So if
that is the platform for NextStep to bloom...fine. If some other 
chip/workstation wins, that's fine too. I wish NeXT all the best in the
hardware arena...they do some things very right...but most of all I want
to see the power of NextStep "at my fingertips."

NeXT Users' Choice Awards---Thanks to Conrad Geiger for the name!

     I will take submissions from the net until Jan 23, 1993.

     All you need to do is send back the form attached below with
your favorite software or hardware products for 1992.
     The subject of the post should be Re: NUCA (or just replying
to this post).  Send votes to szatrows@gandalf.rutgers.edu

     I will post the results and maybe see about getting little
trophies or ribbons made up for the winners.
     This is your chance to reward the great NeXT Developer
community by shining some well deserved praise their way.

The rules are:
- You can only vote once (i.e. one vote per e-mail address).
- You can vote for any product you wish; be it from NeXT, a 3rd
party developer, shareware/freeware (or those tasty frosted donuts
from Hostess under the 'other' category ;-)

     Finally I made up a logo for the winners to use (if they want
to) to let everyone know that they won the NUCA.  I'll put it up on
both orst and nova.  People can let me know if they think it stinks
and if so please feel free to make your own (after all it is the
U S E R S ' choice award so the users should get involved!).  BTW
you will need Helvetica-Black and Avant Garde (Book Oblique & Demi
Oblique) to see the logo in all of its glory :-)
