Hi....Boris, what I call the "infra-red"-series of Macs are a rather incestuous group. By that, I mean that the logic boards are pretty much interchangeable, just the form factor of the "tail-piece" is different. I've built a lot of hybrid machines and never have changed a P/S in any of them. Why? Well, it never came up as an issue. My "pet" 6360-6500/300mhz runs great with the stock P/S and I have all the A/V and TV stuff installed.
