man, i would love to, but i *am* also in for the aesthetics - my cube is displayed on my desk (http://homepage.mac.com/athomp2) so i couldn't stomach the dangling wires and sheot. i'd lusted after the cube for a long time before finally finding mine on ebay. i used to have a sgi O2 and a clone SuSE box before the cube. i sold the O2, and gave away the clone to get the cube, and while i'm wishing for an internal superdrive, i am not wishing for a frankenbox... thanks for tracking that down, though. i'm definitely checking out the info.... it's not all about the aesthetics, though, but man, the cube is beautiful - it pulls on my love of industrial design, and unix :-) would never, ever, ever have bought one before os X. --alan On Wednesday, January 8, 2003, at 09:48 PM, Thubten Kunga wrote: > You in?
