I am seriously considering purchasing one of the B'land demo Cubes
but my system requirements do not include the OD drive.  My question is
this:  is there any interest out there for a used OD drive?  The
Campus Computer store here at MIT offers the OD drive as an option for $2250
($2995 list) so I imagine that NeXT at least feels that there might be
a market for the drives.  Although the OD drive seems ideal for
archiving and backup, given my budetary constraints I would much
rather put my resources towards the purchase of a reasonable
hard-drive and perhaps an upgrade.  So how about it...any interest out
there for a OD drive out of a used Cube?  

Thanx
