[comp.sys.next] NeXT, should it be my next system?

blaine@hobbes.catt.ncsu.edu (Grey Mull) (10/25/90)

	I am a college student studying engineering at NC State U.  I am
	seriously considering purchasing a NeXTstation for my next 
	computer.  Is this a wise thing to do?  I believe that unix is
	the ONLY was to go for the 90's - to me DOS is dead.  I desire to
	have a system that lets me entirely multitask and has built-in
	ethernet capabilities since my residence hall on campus has E-net
	connections in the rooms. 
	Where does one find software to run on the NeXT?
	Does ANY unix software run on the NeXT?
		I am considering purchasing the NeXTstation with the 105Mb
	drive - the price for students is a very resonable $3500.  Is this
	workstation sufficient to stand alone?  Possibly a friend and I will
	both purchase the stations and net them together.
		Thanks in advance for the replies.
