Just picked up a Next Cube last week without anything else just the cube.
Now the search is on for cables, monitor, KB, and mouse. Got a complete
TurboStation a few weeks ago but have broken the password/logon yet. Let me
know if you need parts for your station and if I locate them I will e-mail
you. Good Luck with it.
