I too would like to see some color options for the cube short of the
full-blown NeXTdimension system.  For starters it would be nice to be
able to obtain the same color capabilities on a cube as are available
on a Color NeXTstation.

The 256 color lookup table indexing 16 million colors option (as mentioned
by Mr. Anderson) would also be nice.

Are any OEMS listening?
