Well it seems that Apple does not really want anymore with those "Olds"
stuffs.

I could talk to some Apple guys (on the last Linux Expo) regarding their
support and that was not really great:

 - First, they did not know NextStep (I had to actually tell the guy that it
was the OS of the NeXT, brought back to Apple by Job, before he would
see(somehow) what I was talking about).

 - Second, standard talk was something like "NeXT..., nobody wants to run
that any more, but if you buy a recent Mac you get Mac OSX ....".

No way to talk about something else than new I-Macs and MacOSX (nice somehow
but not the price what I plan to spend).

Anyway thanks for the suggestion.
