[comp.sys.next] I guess they *are* shipping "in volume"

On 19 Dec 1990 we received two NeXTstations (105MB) from
an order of 54.  Two days ago (7 Jan 91) we received the remaining
52.  I checked one of the first 2 and found that it had a 68040
with a large heat sink glued to it, and an "S" (for Sample?)
written on the chip in magic marker.  However, we've had no
hardware problems with the machines and only the usual few
minor software glitches.
