I was just curious but at a meeting the other day at MOST Inc.
I had the opportunity to ask why they didn't solicit NeXT as
an OEM two years ago when they developed the first 128 3.5' read/write
optical.  I was told that NeXT evaluated the unit and strongly 
rejected it only no one seems to know exactly why.  Now, two
years later the 128 Optical is catching on quite nicely while 
the 256 meg Optical is slowly replacing it.  So one more time,
why didn't NeXT move forward on technology that improves 
on an idea that has allready been introduced to the NeXT community?
Furthermore, why was the 128 optical rejected as an OEM consideration?

I was really hopeing that the NeXTstation's would someday have an internal
optical 3.5' disc.  After all, the MOST optical specification is at
3.5' half height etc.  If NeXT were to become interested again I'd give 
them my evaluation unit without hesitation plus a contact person at 
MOST that I'm constantly feeding NeXT literature too.

Just a thought.
