Math. Phys. 182, 155 ͑1996͒, e-print hep-th/ 9606001͔, one of the three generations of fermions has to possess a massless neutrino. ͓C. P. Martin et al., Phys. Rep. 29, 363 ͑1998͒, e-print hep-th-9605001͔.This formulation is consistent with neutrino oscillation experiments and the known bounds of the Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata matrix ͑PMNS matrix͒. But future experiments which may be able to detect neutrino masses directly and highprecision measurements of the PMNS matrix might need massive neutrinos in all three generations. In this paper we present an almost-commutative geometry which allows for a standard model with massive neutrinos in all three generations. This model does not follow in a straightforward way from the version of Chamseddine and Connes since it requires an internal algebra with four summands of matrix algebras, instead of three summands for the model with one massless neutrino.
