Just picked up a Next Cube last week without anything else just the cube.
Now the search is on for cables, monitor, KB, and mouse. Got a complete
TurboStation a few weeks ago but have broken the password/logon yet. Let me
know if you need parts for your station and if I locate them I will e-mail
you. Good Luck with it.

Feh, LCDs are toys! :-) My current favorite is the orange gas-plasma
display on my Toshiba T5100/100. Which, by the way, I'm still looking
for Toshiba's unix, T/PIX, for -- I couldn't even find someone that
knew of it *at* Toshiba. :-/
ObClassics: Finally picked up a NeXTstation today, the search for
which got me into collecting classics in the first place. (Well, the
search for a cube, really. But this was too good to pass up.)
