Well, we do, slightly. I live in Buffalo and there are powerlines strung across the Niagara River between Buffalo and Ft. Erie... As for power supply standards, try figuring out why hospitals (and a select few other businesses) get 207V. I have absolutely no idea why, but they do. ;-) Paul _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
