I suppose I am ambivalent about this. On the one hand, I own two Next's
and an upgrade path that saved me money would be great. On the other hand,
I bought them because they met my needs. I needed computers to do certain
things and the Next's I have do them. Just because there is something better
out now, doesn't make my machines any slower or work any worse than they
did yesterday or last week. Just because the new Next owners can use ADB
keyboards and devices, doesn't make my keyboard or mouse any worse.

If Next offers an upgrade path, that's super. But if they don't that's OK 
too. I bought them for what they did and they still work as well today as 
the day I bought them.

Thanks!
