What kind of support are you talking about. Your warranty is a NeXT
warranty so, it should apply at any NeXT service center. Otherwise,
you have to buy it.

It depends on university X.

Again, it depends on the sales contract you enter into with the University
you purchase it from. At the University of Texas at Austin, you must offer
to sell the computer back to the Microcenter if you need to sell it before
two years after purchase.
