a) I don't agree.  When the NeXTstation was introduced it was a
   very good machine for the money.  It's still reasonably good
   even though the prices haven't dropped much since the intro.
b) Doesn't all this "Flamethrower" stuff, and the metaphysical
   discussion of what NeXT "should" be doing, belong in csn.advocacy?
