Has anyone here ever owned a Next computer?
Tells us about it.


I own a NeXT machine... ok it's called a MacBook Pro... but it was designed by NeXT engineers and it runs the NeXT operating system... ok it's called MacOS X... but it was designed by NeXT engineers... and the company is run by the guy who set up and ran NeXT computers... so yeah, I own a NeXT machine and it's very nice :-)
