For various reasons, I have to downgrade 41 Turbo NeXTs from 3.0 to 2.2.   
Problem is, nobody around here has a 2.2 distribution, or even a 2.2 hard  
drive to build from.

I'm not sure what the licensing implications are, but does anyone have an  
original 2.2 distribution on (yech) floppies that they could arrange to  
lend/rent/lease/ftp :-) to me?  Was 2.2 ever shipped on a CD, because that  
would be even better.

I haven't talked to NeXT about this yet, but does anyone know if they will  
still ship pre-3.0 software?

Aaarrgghh!!
