Yep, I'm a developer and I still hear what you are saying.  I'm interested
in the NeXT as a development paradigm, but I'd still like to see my 
applications used someday... so I'm concerned, nay MORTIFIED that so many
people feel this way about NeXT.  C'mon guys, you've just GOT to support
the old hardware or you'll never move forward into the markets you really
have been striving for.

The reason why they haven't been worried about it is because not enough
people haven't been vocalizing their opinions.  If you show them what you
want, they will react.  For those of you who don't know... the number is 
(800)848-NeXT!  A letter would probably be even better.
