A friend called telling me about a UNIX box he had read about.  I'd
like to get more information on it to see if it is worth looking into
seriously.

The box is called 'Cubix' and claims to run various version of UNIX
(including Xenix).  I don't know what kind of CPU it has.  It comes
in an 11"x11"x11" box.  The basic $20K unit comes with 2M RAM, 55M disk,
60M tape drive, 8 serial ports, UPS backup power, UNIX (binary-only
I would guess).  It is expandable to 8M RAM, 216M disk.

The friend I heard about it from says he heard "it outperforms
an AT" (to which I replied, "that isn't saying much").  Still it
sounds like a possibly interesting box to at least take a peek at.
If anyone out there has had any expirience with this box, I'd appreciate
any opinions you'd care to share...todd
