Depends on what you need the picture for, i.e. what quality, how
reuseable, etc.
I gather from the .il domain you're not in the US. Some of these ideas
may or may not work in other countries. This is what I'd try here.
I would tend to check a major local public library, see if they keep old
periodicals from the year when the NeXT Cube came out. I seem to recall
a lot of photo coverage in the various (US) computer mags back then.
The PL would also be a good source for older "everything you ever wanted
to know about computers" type books, some of which (mostly the thicker
paperback types) tended to show pics of what were then the current
machines. Our PL's computer section tends to have a bunch of very old
computer books -- including some actual users manuals for older
machines, and you might get lucky there, too.
I forget if NeXT is still around out there somewhere. Wasn't that Steve
Jobs' company he started when he left Apple? I think they went
belly-up. If they hadn't, I'd suggest their Public Relations
department. Maybe whoever bought out the remaining assets of the
company, same department?
You could also try a websearch for NeXT Computer Users Groups. Gotta be
one somewhere, I'd imagine.
