Amen. I propose that since NeXT obviously doesn't consider the 'e' very important, that we simply drop it, which gives us "NXT". Then, just lower case the rest to make it "nxt". This is mnemonic enough to make it obvious what machine we are talking about, without confusing the original nxt machine with the next nxt machine. -Fred -- # Fred Fish, 1346 West 10th Place, Tempe, AZ 85281, USA # noao!nud!fishpond!fnf (602) 921-1113
