Has anyone connected transputers to NeXT's Cubes?
What would be the best or the easiest way to do it?

You could therefore probably plug in a Levco board. These cards were designed for the MacII so there might be a problem or two with them in the Next machine. Obviously you'd also need software (a device driver for the card---the transputer software could be stolen from a SUN system).
