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.
