Chuck,

We ship up to 4 power cords with plenty of products without any issues. The
only complaint is from product managers trying to squeeze every last bit of
margin out of products. Those extra $6 or so get thrown out in most cases.

In past lives we did what Doug suggested. Made the power cord a separate
line on the customer order. That worked well for us. Only issue there was
the power cord was not packed in the box with the product.

Scott
