Hmm, I have Sun Sparcstation IPX  here  at university and NeXTstations
at my own company. Comparing these two machines: I think Sun is pretty
boring to use. Those specs above looks like they  have a  fast machine
but if  I have to  choose between  NeXT  and Sun  I  would  take NeXT.

I value the  Operating System (or should I  say the Operating Environ-
ment) more and more I use my NeXT.
