According to the New York Times, Wednesday, October 18, NeXT will be providing diskless workstations for networks at reduced cost to universities and, presumably, to businesses as well. The article did not mention when such systems would be available or what discount would be provided. In addition, NeXT has announced a product called the 'Accelerator', presumably for OD-only or diskless workstations. It's a 40 meg hard drive that the system will use for virtual memory, rather than swapping over a network or to the optical drive. Did the Wall Street Journal give any additional info? Jonathan Dubman
