#I was wondering if anyone has had any experience in placing the NeXTstation slab

I posted a similar query about four months ago when our secretary got the  
SECOND NeXT in our group.  The responses were, I judged, mixed, but enough
people said things about the drive bearings going south that I/we came to
a better physical arrangement in which the slab could stay flat.
