For those who keep statistics, I ordered a 68040/2.0 upgrade for my
cube and received it within a month of sending my check. I had been
expecting a much longer delay, so I am happy, again, with NeXT.

I really wonder what NeXT's allocation (non-)policy is for upgrades. Mr. Knauth in Boston got his (68040/2.0) "within a month of sending [his] check." I placed my order at the end of October, and all I've seen so far is a xerox [tm] of a form letter from Steve Jobs explaining that Higher Ed customers are NeXT's highest priority and my stuff will be sent as soon as possible (note lack of any specific date). I'm sure glad I didn't order a bunch of equipment for our student lab and organize a course around it for the current term - as I thought of doing last October/November.
