Motorola has announced that the 40MHz 040 will ship in Q4. That means  
December at the earliest. NeXT is absolutely not going to ship 40MHz  
NeXTstations two or three months before they get the CPUs. And yes, you  
can quote me on that. This is not to say that NeXT will ever produce a  
40MHz 040 product, but if they do, it won't be before December at the  
earliest.
