There would be 4 equasized balls in each corner of the cube. To determine the size of the balls I would need to:
a) pull out some old radius equations in order to determine the remaining space available for the diameter of the new balls.
b) drum up the energy to do that.

Ergo: c) no answer.

Gone and only slightly forgotten. ;p

It was a pretty good brain-teaser actually.

Norton,

Unfortunately it went to the sin bin because a couple posters misbehaved and it was just gonna spiral (much like PZ's avatar) into a worthless thread.

PZ, you're wrong, you're making the same mistake that Stoneburg made. Your balls are touching the center ball, and you have the opposite end of the ball touching the corner of the cube, which it of course can not and will not do. The corner balls will be touching the center ball and 3 sides of the cube, but they will not touch the corner.
Boy, you got me confused with a man who repeats himself.
