   Ditto.  NeXT really knows how to completely aggravate their customers.
   
   How about a new group?  comp.sys.next.complaints.  I'm quite sure they'd  
   get hundreds of postings every month.  I'm also *VERY* sure NeXT would  
   completely ignore that group entirely.


You know, guys, I really think this all shows a lack of understanding or tolerance for  
the problems of companies like NeXT. They don't manufacture the guts of devices like  
CD-ROM drives, and have to contend with problems with their suppliers, which means that  
customers have to wait in turn. You don't suppose that NeXT is deliberately making you  
guys wait, do you? And do you think that perhaps they should have held up the delivery of  
3.0 'til everyone had a drive? Or maybe they should have not even announced these drives  
and 3.0 until they had enough for the entire user base?

Give them some credit for doing the best they can, as fast as they can.
