I think those of us who are still NeXTies (I can only speak for myself
(still adminning black slabs and cubes for ox.ac.uk) and a couple of
people I know) tend to have moved onto OS X and hang around in Mac
groups. Check out www.openstep.se for a nice, frequently-updated site,
though.
I'd probably use my own NeXT gear a lot more if some modern UNIX tools
could be built on them - my cube only gets switched on every so often to
check whether the hard disk has seized up or not :-/
