Dear Eric et al.,
 
As a side the 25th edition was the edition in which Kurt Aland et al made significant textual changes based on newly researched and discovered manuscript evidence.  Many of Nestle's at that time preferred readings were regulated to the apparatus and many older and scientifically better founded readings were given priority within the text itself.
 
In addition the electronic prototype 28th edition can be accessed on line below.

Cordially in Christ,

I think the person at ABS is giving you erroneous information. There is NO N-A text that lacks 
the critical apparatus, as far as I know.

All the dark Blue editions have the N-A 27 text with the apparatus.

The Greek-English one with the RSV English text has the full N-A 27 text with 
apparatus on one page, and the RSV English on the facing page, with English notes re: KJV 
and AV variants. But ... this Greek-English edition has a Burgundy cover.

The N-A 27/Latin version has a dark Green cover. I don't know the color of the N-A 27/German 
diglot.

The $29 N-A 27 should have the critical apparatus, unless ABS has done something we have 
all asked for but have yet to see - i.e., a text-only N-A 27 that would be smaller and more 
pocket-sized.
