Hi Mark,

I know there's at least one person on the list with the required parts now
who might let you test your new cube =)

Sad that I'm leaving now, maybe we could have started BNUG. It could be
kind of like a Mac club, but our socks wouldn't have to be argyle, and we'd
have more than one mouse button. =)

[BLUG] Speaking of NeXT

This is cool. I found a NeXT N1000 cube lying on a pallet yesterday
at Cook. I felt like I had just made a major archeological find. It
had been moved around over the years and eventually found its way out of
a closet and onto a pallet. It turns out it had an interesting history
in how it got here. It used to be the former CEO's computer when he was
an engineer a long time ago.

Unfortunately, it has proprietary video and keyboard ports so I can't
boot it up at the moment.
