My NeXT was my first introduction to UNIX and what a fantastic introduction
it was. Really nice Mega Pixel mono display sharp as a razor.
One day I would like to get hold of a NeXT setup again, maybe when I have
finished the Domesday project I'll work on collecting the parts for a NeXT
system. In the mean time I have scanned a few items I have and stuck them up
at..

I have a couple more to scan yet and I need to find two that I am missing to
complete the set. I need Cube & Cube Turbo in nice 300dpi scans if possible.
If anyone can oblige I will bung them up with the ones I have already
scanned.
