Is NeXT replacing the 330MB drive on all of their new systems with a 400MB drive? I got the price sheet at Penn State today, and they haven't made the changes to reflect this. -Mike

The price for the machine will remain the same, and they will be shipped early February (hopefully). Besides, NeXT is introducing a 200 Mb hard drive version of the NeXTstation, which will come with the standard edition of the software package. Tom Mok
