Has SparcStation 1 killed NeXT?

[Dr. A.Bykat]

By now quite a few of you have a SparcStation1. This machine was heralded
by Sun as the NeXT killer. And so here is my question to those of you who
have the good fortune of working with both machines:

      Has SparcStation-1 killed NeXT?

It is particularly interesting to compare the two as software development
machines: cpu(8Mb)+mouse+BW
monitor+laserwriter+harddisk(300Mb)+OS+standard software.

So which one would you buy for your own personal machine?  (For price
comparisons use academic prices for NeXT and a typical academic discount
on Sun hardware of 35%. Add harddisk to NeXT ignoring the included
opti-disk.)
