On most ATX power supplies, though, the 12V outputs aren't very steady unless you load the 5V lines a bit. Some people use a light bulb for this. I used a couple of big resistors. Seemed to work pretty well. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
