i think you'll find that legally, you will have to purchase a license to NeXTStep.
also, you might find that most monitors ain't as high-res as the megapixel, and you may want to splurge for one.

the documents you require are available from NeXT, and cost about $70 before the educational discount.  (BackPlane, etc)

over all, if you want to get a decent NeXT up and running, unless it's more for a project than anything else,  go ahead and get a used NeXT.  use the mboard as a secondary processing board in your cube.  or, just do the '030 as a hobby project.  unless ya wanna spend a good bit of time/work/cash...

just my 2 cents.
(and yes, i've built one before)
