Whatever the issues, there is no doubt in my mind that the Cube + 15"LCD is the most gorgeous computer set-up I have ever seen. I was willing to buy one based on aesthetics alone.

Well, Phaedon, you�ve now gotten a glimpse of Cube history, and also a dose of The Cube Troll, aka Cipher 13. You�ll notice his post count is >10000 and his status is Clini…

*bump* My rehash of the month

when the processing power of the cube and the tower (sold in the same period) are obsolete, in the end the cube is smaller and quieter (& more attractive) to use as a mp3 serve…

Cipher, I respect your opinion, and I know you are a damn smart guy, so dont take it personal. In a case of Cube, price and performance criteria do not apply as usually, though the…

I like the cube. Too bad Apple released it overpriced .

i managed to find my "new" 450/cd-r/20gig/128mb cube on ebay. i have since added a 15 inch apple lcd, 512mb of ram, and an 80gig seagate baraccuda IV hard drive. i bought it becaus…

I am a none Mac user so I want attempt to address the technical issues. But I am something of a Mac fan all the same and I watched the rise and fall of the cube. I read a lot of …

The CompUSA up the road from me has two 450mhz cubes still. I want a cube, but they're still asking $1399 for them, and I've seen em much cheaper online. I also want the dvd mode…

I've seen them go for around $900 on eBay (450Mhz / DVD). Not much of a performance diff between 450Mhz and 500Mhz though. A more noticeable boost will be from the graphics card …

Which configuration is best? The fastest; Sawtooth. But you can always build your own at the Apple Store. If done right you can get a great machine for a good price. Try playing …

J-DOG; thats a pretty subjective question, but it really depends on what you want the system for....If you are into graphic design, desktop publishing, illustrating and/or serious …

Now that all configs run on the same boards, the answer to your question depends on your needs. Personally, I thin kyou should get the fastest machine you can afford.

No, I'm running Word 98 on the same system that you apparently have (450 sawtooth/ 128 RAM), and I haven't had any unusual problems with it. I'm running OS 8.6, as it was when it …

actually i'm running os9 with my g4. so that means it has something to do with os9 and word98. i'll try something. thanks.

Have you checked the available patches? Check out the Microsoft "Mactopia" pages, because I *think* that there was a note about Office 98 and OS 9, and there is a patch to fix kno…

thanks i had office98 updated a while ago but i had vir mem on because i couldn't afford any errors like that. but now that i have checked i think the patch really did solve the pr…

Anyone ? Please ... Alessandro

I had a problem where a "buzz" sound would appear at regular intervals; not sure if it's the same thing you're getting. My problem came from the mass of wires coming down verticall…

Yeah, sounds like some sort of vibration whine to me

Does your graphics card have a fan on it? Mine does and it makes just the sort of cyclical noise that you mention. You can open the machine while it's running and put your finger …
