[Cube] Cube Digest, Vol 57, Issue 2

[Bill Fox]

More or less sad but true. The stock Cube runs Tiger very well by just adding some RAM. For about $350 in CPU/graphics upgrades you will get a Cube that runs Leopard very well. For another $300, you will get a Mini that is smaller and with a much more powerful CPU and graphics and that will run Snow Leopard and beyond. It depends on if you have the additional $300 or can wait to save it up.

Spend the money on a Mini (which you'll be able to put to (quietly humming) productive use for a better part of the next decade again) and sell the Cube to a collector on eBay or keep it, but then relegate it as a memorable conversation piece.
