I remember staying with a friend who was a grad student at Stanford at the time for the 1989 TUG Meeting. He had one of these on his desk (he had been contracted by NeXT to do NeXTTeX). I just remember how blazingly fast and slick everything about that computer was. At the same time, it was super expensive ($6500 for the original NeXT computer) and originally only offered to students and educational institutions. Steve Jobs apparently answered a question about what business people who wanted a NeXT should do if they wanted one with, "Enroll."
