Hi everybody,
I'm actually looking for black hardware for 5-6 years. Sadly, I live in France and that dream machine is very hard to find here, so I wanted to know if someone here wanted to sell its NeXT.
Moreover, does anyone have an idea of the shipping cost of a complete system from USA to France ??
Thanx
PS: sorry for my worst english

It should not have been nearly as hard as that, I've had a few NeXT's in my time, all except 1 bought in the UK. There are probably as many NeXT's in Germany as anywhere else in the world and you won't have to pay duty on anything you buy from there.

If you have a lot of time (about 8-9 weeks) for an economy parcel via USPS and the seller packaged well the cube, you have to count with ~$60 for a cube. Slabs are cheaper because smaller, but the big problem would be the megapixel display.
So, if you have no parts from NeXT machines, you should consider to get a color station, better a Turbo color, wich can be driven via proper adapter on multisync monitors (>1024x768 and SOG)
What no hacking of Minitel's? (Sorry could not resist, merde!)
UK is your best bet for used NeXT machines.. then eBay anywhere.. If you do get a machine from the US, I would make sure that you pay for insurance as boxes to go missing depending on the shipper and the quality of handling (again depending on carrier).
Bonne chance!
