 NeXTcube |
|
The NeXTcubeTM computer is the expand-
able NeXT computer
for people who
need maximum configuration flexibility in
mass
storage and memory. It can also
be used as a server on a
network.

NeXT computers use Display
PostScript® for both screen
imaging and printing. This
makes two key things possible:
First, what you see on the screen
is precisely what you get
when you print. Second, it means that
imaging happens in
the NeXT computer--not in the printer. So
there's no need for
the printer to have its own processor. That's
why the NeXT 400
dpi Laser Printer is one of the most affordable
printers around. | |

The NeXTcube offers a tremendous
amount of power
and performance--
all in a one-foot magnesium cube. It
uses
the powerful Motorola 68040 CPU
and Motorola 56001 DSP. As your
needs
change, you can add more memory. You
can also add up to
three boards to the
NeXTcube, simply by plugging them into
the
NeXTbus.TM For instance, you
might
consider adding a NeXTdimensionTM
color board.
