Scott Turner writes > NeXT would seem to be making some bad "loyalty pays" moves this year. This year? Don't forget the ND (which came out a couple years ago, I think) that has not been upgraded, refunded (or recalled), and nothing by NeXT has been made to get any hardware compression on that beast. NeXT won't even let out what that mystical expansion port does (is it still on there?) More and more with NeXT, I get the feeling that the more new stuff NeXT might bring to market the more they'll see a series of hesitant buyers. For myself, I am now very hesitant to jump on new offerings by NeXT only because they weren't so hesitant to screw the OD and ND buyers (and continue to screw recent ND buyers). It's almost as if NeXT doesn't want us to buy certain things, yet they bring them out anyways....jeez. -- -- Jeff (jeffo@uiuc.edu) -- NeXTmail ok
