I'm writing this message to look for some information about the Next computer. I know that this is probably a frequently asked question, so please don't flame me for this... 8-) I'm considering buying a Cube. Last week I visited Businessland in London where I got some brochure and played with a Cube. Here are my basic questions: 1) Is the Next comparable, or even better, to a Sun workstation? In fact I intend to use it primarily as a scientific workhorse and graphics software development system. 2) Is Next Inc. in good financial health ? The number of Nexts sold in the last years seems to be low compared to other workstations like the Sun. 3) Does Next give a satisfactory post-sale service in Europe (that's where I live) ? 4) Is there a Next dealer in Italy ? (Hey Next staff are you hearing?!?) 5) Are there any happy/unhappy Next users in Italy? I thank in advance anyone who replies. Please respond by e-mail, I will summarize if of interest. -Arrigo -- Arrigo Benedetti | USENET: root@pubit.sublink.ORG Via S.Agata 11, 41100 Modena - Italy | BANG: ..!rutgers!deejay!gear!pubit VOICE +39.59.216688 FAX +39.59.220727 | TELEX 512007 PUBIT I | Sublink ... the Italian **nix link ...
