I have one of said Cubes in my possession. It has a basic install of
NetBSD on it. I have only the 32MB of ram that it came with. This does
not seem to be enough resources to actually accomplish anything beyond
the ability to boot.

If anybody would like to play with it, I would make it available to
them. I think to do any useful work, it will need to be maxed out to
it's 64MB capacity. This would require 2 32MB simms which I have been
unable to acquire. Pretty much the same stuff we were running in our
486s (maybe early 586s) a few years ago.
