Well I must say it looks really nice, and not nearly as prone to arcing
the mains with the loose half of the case as some of the others posted
(including my own).

I probably won't mess with power supplies anymore unless I build one
using those blue CB mount encapsulated torroids (like in Transporter),
and regulate them locally on a reboxed Sb3. 

I have some super regulators, but have not decided on trying to get
those close to the circuit or just using an upgraded SMD regulator,
with the super regulator at the 5V external input (which is what I
gathered ALW himself did from one of his later postings, but could be
wrong). Getting the internal DAC off the display feed would be nice
though.

Lots of work, but it's fun I suppose, and not something you can just
buy off the shelf* (save for SB+ and possibly Bolder but not sure what
he does internally to the PS).

*EDIT: oops, almost forgot- transporter is off-the-shelf, and has these
features :-)
