I ordered it from the factory with 128 MB RAM.

I ordered 2 more 512 MB DIMMs to add to it, and as of Wednesday, December 5, 2001, it has 1.5 GB RAM.
Some peripherals are an internal 8X CD-RW, an external USB Zip 250 Drive,

See my System Software History for updates to its Mac OS.
When I got the Cube, I got a Netgear RT311 Router for my DSL Internet connection.
I already had a 10/100 Base-T Hub and a DSL modem.
I have a Cat 5 network in my apartment to allow file-sharing and broadband Internet sharing.
In July 2003, I purchased an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station with modem.
This allows me to share my dial-up internet connection.
On December 25, 2002, Mom & Dad gave me an iPod!
It is a 10 GB with a Touchwheel & a wired remote.
I have put my entire music collection on it.
I also installed Mac OS X 10.1.5 & Mac OS 9.2.2 on it.
I have an iTrip FM transmitter and a car charger to play it through my car's stereo.
Its OS currently is iPod 1.3.
