My cube doesn't have a floppy. I've been considering looking for
another faceplate (for a floppy cube), removing the OD and just haveing
a floppy. I never use the floppy on my slab, I usually use the zip in
the external housing.
I did notice Rob had the N4000a's. I'm considering getting on as a
spare. Rob doesn't like to ship the 21" monitors, but my wife said she
would go on a road trip to Boulder to pick one up. It's only about
12-13 hours away from Dallas.
