My dock also had crapped out some time ago. I had a card I put in the dock to allowed for a second monitor. So I ran a crappie IBM 13" color monitor (my company's) and my old 19" gray scale. It was real cool I would like to know if someone knows of a more stable (more power) power supply for the doc? Also if possible an external power supple would be ok but I would rather deal with replacement or repair of the old supply. To order a replacement for the supply through a Apple supplier used Apple parts is a crock or money at the end of the rainbow (ha ha ha sometimes a little disenchanted with Apple). HELP! I may try preowned electronics but then we are back using the old under designed power supple. This was the problem with the old first macs up until or through the mac plus. Cus I had one of and still have that old 68000 processor siting on my shelf but had that power supple replaced when upgraded to 512k from the original 128k of ram. Ha my G3 came with 128 megs. Ha figure that is a 1000 times the ram huh guys and gals...things have changed but we have to make sure good ol Apple puts out a decent product. I enjoy hooking up the 2300c via apple link to the G-3. Then I get the other drives and can move info without having a floppy. The 2300 does not have a floppy without hooking up an external (bummer).
