I am aware that installing the floppy drive internally might be a problem for some of the older cubes, but it appears that a good number of them do have the proper mounting holes, and in any case it is not difficult to drill a couple of holes yourself. So. NeXT has turned a deaf ear to my requests so far. I'd like to avoid having the traditional maze of wires behind the computer. It is a very simple operation to perform. So why the refusal? Any third part listening? :) Julian Nicolas
