if only jobs could/would break ranks with motorola and stick such a beast in the cube and re-christen it the "cube-squared : the world's first internet APPLiancE", i'd be smiling for months...

i'm happy that the cube doesn't have floppy drives. i'd be happy enough to buy one if:
- it was a *dvd-ram* device (dvd-rom would have seemd cool in 1996 or so)
- it also lacked a hard drive (and used the resulting xtra space for a couple of pci slots)
- that is, if it was a "info-toaster appliance" instead of a weird attempt at a mini-micro-computer....
add those features and continue to tout it as a digital video port and apple has something imho...
