NeXT computer educational package has the following prices: Base Model: NeXT Computer $6,500 8MB RAM 256 MB Optical Drive MegaPixel Display NeXT Keyboard NeXT Mouse NeXT Bundled Software Options: 330MB Hard Disk $2,000 660MB Hard Disk $4,000 400dpi Laser Printer $2,000 (The above prices are obtained from the NeXT Representative at U.C.Berkeley, and were also heavily advertised by Steve Jobs when he made the anouncement) According to this price list, Burt's computer was most likely purchased for $10,500 ($6,500 base Model +$2,000 HD +$2,000 Laser Printer) since he is at UCSF where the educational price applies. And he wants to sell a used one for $16,500 to make some quick cash? I seriously doubt if one wants to spend 16 grand for a used computer doesn't care to call in the Manufacturer to check the latest price for a NEW one.

(Or $4995.37 if you don't like the OD.) Bet all you other universities feel pretty jealous. Plus, we have the fabulous looking MAP women. -william shipley next guru wannabe
