So it would seem, therefore, that if all the old NeXT machine owners want ADB  
support, they must purchase a Turbo machine or is there some way for cube  
owners to trade in their old CPU board for a discount on a Turbo board?  Is  
buying a Turbo board possible (just the board for the cube, not the cube shell  
itself)?  If so, how much is list price on that?

Thanks.
