[comp.sys.next] Magnesium? Why?

jamesc@pcsceln.uucp (James Clough (Senior-SA)(m)) (04/14/91)

I have heard that NeXT cases are made of magnesium?  Is this true?  If so,
why?  Are there some properties of magnesium that I am unaware of that make
it an infinitely superior material for making computer cases?

If this ever reaches the net, please respond e-mail just to say that it got
there.  My news is broken as is the one at the site I use to greet the world,
and I would be exceedingly pleased if this were to even leave Nampa.
