Looking for a working cube. Anyone have one to sell?
What are you looking for? I almost certainly have something...
Thanks to those who mage messaged me. I'd really like to find a turbo dimension cube, if anyone is selling.

Finding a complete turbo dimension cube is only slightly easier than finding a unicorn at this point. It's possible, but you'll likely have to look for a long while. I built one from parts over the course of a year.

the ones that are available aren't cheap... and neither are the parts.
How much $$ you looking to spend?
I have a primo dual dimension Turbo Cube but would not sell it cheap <grin>
Of course mine has dual NeXT 21' displays that would need to go with it too.
Plus original boxes for it all less one of the 21" display boxes.
I would consider selling it for someplace between $4-$5K. :lol: :lol:

Sounds like a great setup! Just need to decide if I want that or a Mac Pro with dual 30" screens :)

I can only imagine collectors buying decked out Cubes. A MacPro would be more useful for modern day computing.
Something though can be said for how awesome a NeXTcube looks on a desk with two 21' NeXt Displays. Looks like dream computer of the 90s and still looks kick-butt in 2014.
Video of my setup... Also have a NeXT Mono Monitor connected sometimes for a 3 screen setup but on this video I did not have it connected at that time. Fun with 3 displays, 2 color and 1 mono, on a NeXTcube for sure.

That CD drive needs the face plate painted. :P

Agreed.
I actually have two external NeXT CD Drives and been contemplating installing one of those since NeXT at some point put then internally.
The NeXT CD units are black so would look nicer.
I just find little time to play with the NeXTcube these days and it sits in the office getting turned on quarterly and that is about it.
I should just put my whole collection on eBay starting at $5K and see what happens. I have so many of the popular software for the time and about two of everything. I sold one of my Cubes long back but kept this one and all the extra keyboards, mice, sound boxes, etc.... so I had backups of items.

Maybe I should add my BeBox to the listing and make it $7K. :twisted: :twisted:
A NeXTcube Dual Dimension BeBox Extravaganza! LOL
