Well, it's not *that* big.  It would take two side-by-side to be
(slightly) larger than the footprint of a cube.  The dimensions are
about seven inches by 12.75 inches, so two would be about 14x13
inches, and the cube is 12x12 inches.

Though I agree that the thing is perhaps a little oversized.  It
would be nice if NeXT put the floppy and CD slots on the monitor ...
