	No.  The 030 NeXTs haven't been made for months, and there never was
a 030 NeXTstation (well, there might be some prototype I never heard of, but
there was never any 030 NeXT computer sold besides the original cube, which
has been discontinued).  The NeXT listed above uses a 68040, as does every
other NeXT computer still being built.
	BTW, did I mention that NeXT aren't using the 030 anymore?  :)
