Oh no, not again...
  
Just for the record, in case you missed the minor and very much
mistaken (at least on my part) flamefest a while back, please move 
U of Oregon off the "Bitched-About List" to the "Much Praised List".
 
On that note, ditching the whole list may be a good idea.  The list
of great places to go for NeXT help is nice to have, but the list
of bad places just isn't that useful.  (So why did I originally
complain?  Just stupid, I guess.. :-) 
 
Even if those places are really as bad as one or two people have said 
(and I'll bet they're not), their staff and inventory will change very 
quickly over time.  (By definition - these are schools...)  Sooner or 
later, someone will come by who gets hooked on the NeXT, and things
will get better.  And given the nature of NeXTs, they will probably
stay better.  The list will just hurt those people who need help the 
most.  Nuke it.
