As it was private, I will not include it, but I will mention the content: It did NOT contain either helpful suggestions or sympathy about my situation in maintaining a NeXT box. It merely re-iterated observations that I had already made, and told me what I CANNOT do with the NeXT box (namely remote system administration). I'd much rather be told what I *CAN* do to improve my situation. I don't have much choice in doing remote system administration. I would expect better public relations from a NeXT employee!
