Not really, since the only sort of widespread NeXTBus board available was
the NeXTDimension anyways. So you had 3 empty NeXTBush slots, but not
boards to put in them, so BFD. The HDD space was also not that
spectacular.

Actually the configuration is really close to modern Octanes, IMHO.
However like the Octane, I believe the machine was horribly inefficient
when it came to the use of its volume. The fact that there is not internal
5.25 bay in the Octane is a crime IMHO, as well as the rounded top, with
is uneven enough not to allow to place any external storage on top of ht
machine. That is strike 2 for that machine, and the loud ass powersupply,
strike 3!!!! But I still love mine just the same :) (strike 4 is the ugly
ass green color ugh)
