Although my Cube has two full height devices in the drive bay, I would be more than willing to move the 660MB Micropolis to an external case, get a 400MB 1/3 heigh internal hard drive (Connor?) and a NeXT FLOPPY DRIVE. I am willing to pay up to $250US for a NeXT internal floppy drive. The lack of mounting holes is not a problem ... this is the reason why I own a Makita power drill. As for the lack of power connectors ... a Y-connector would solve that problem real quick. So, my friends at NeXT (especially management and marketing), how about it? I know at least five other Cube owners who would be willing to do the same thing. PLEASE sell us the internal floppy drive!!!! :-) Joe jchin@van-bc.wimsey.bc.ca -- ************************************************************** * "Kill the body and the head will die" (Hunter S.
