Oh I know all about the community site, I got myself into the forum on Saturday and I am loving what I have read so far. As for the peanuts archive believe it or not I believe its actually installed on my NS! The previous owner was a collector himself and replaced the drive with a Scsi2SD board which works wonderfully well. Sure I don't get the classic sound of the disk spinning up but as long as everything works the way it's supposed to I cannot be picky haha! The other interesting thing about this acquisition was that it came with actual documentation and the official OS Install/Dev tools Disks! The Documentation itself seems to be the original "Getting Started" Booklet that covers both the NeXTstation and the NeXTcube setups and walk through. There is also an official user reference guide, applications guide, release notes, some letters and another book which is a third party publication on how to use the Operating System. The Documentation alone is awesome looking through and I might consider bringing it up the next time I am at the Museum if anyone wants to look through it! Thanks again for the reach out Tony! Lou

Very nice! If you have not already, make sure you check out nextcomputers.org Especially their file archive (down the bottom of the home page)

They have ISO images of the peanuts archive CDs along with disk images (cd and floppy) >of many of the utilities, apps, games and operating systems that were available for >the NeXT machines.
