Getting Ready to the NeXT Adventure at SMECC

Getting Ready to the NeXT Adventure at SMECC Found some of the boxes of cables, the mouse, trays for the laser printer. Another crate had these slipcases with lots of 8x11 NeXT Manuals in them... In addition there are CDs Located the CUBE, the Monitor and Keyboard need to find where the printer is. I know it is there! A couple weeks back I was given a copy of "Steve Jobs & the Next Big Thing" and started reading it. Very Interesting although it was done before apple got jobs back and from what I see in other sources adapted the NeXT software to be OS-X. I would interested in hearing from the group to how accurate they consider this book. I am also interested an any suggestions how I handle the initial power up... this whole machine is a new thing to me as Macs and NeXT are systems I never used back in the 'the day' Any advice on or off list appreciated! After I get it running, assuming it will I will set it in the display area and will need to look for some colorful advertising stuff to help decorate the display. If is totally roached and will not fire up then I guess it becomes a static display ( until some other parts units show up?) Thanks Ed# _www.smecc,org_ (http://www.smecc,org)
