Is it possible to obtain an internal cdrom drive for the NeXTcube?  The only
option our campus microcomputer center has is the external.

Given my choice, I would like to pull the floptical drive entirely, and just
replace it with either the 2.88MB floppy disk or the cdrom drive, preferably
the latter.  Is this at all possible?

Also, my cube has one of the first '040 boards in it, I'm assuming therefore
that it's 25MHz.  Is there an upgrade path to migrate to the 33MHz?

cheers,
sr.
