I asked Mike Slade at NeXTworld about the 40000-60000 estimate and he said that were not bad estimates. If both are not bad around 50000 would be the case. But I suppose 40000 is better. That means that the machines would have been sold for around 120M/40000 is $3000 a piece. Since large parts of sales were either education or large accounts I think that these figures are not very far off. I am of course totally wrong and history will vindicate me ... ;-) -- wierda@ltb.bso.nl (Gerben Wierda) || I speak for myself and not for my employer.
