I think that power supply adapter cable from Power On is a Good Thing (TM). However, as long as they're not about to run out, and as long as your power supply is still working, I don't see any reason to rush out and buy one. The nice thing about the adapter is that with it you can install almost any ATX power supply in your S900/J700, so there's no worry about finding the odd power supply. It's easy to pile stuff up "just in case" end up not using most of it, and waste a lot of space and money. I still have several of the S900 power supplies I bought from Small Dog when they were on sale, because I did thought there wouldn't be replacements available in the future. As it turns out, it's easy enough to adapt ATX PSs to the machine, so I have this hoard of S900 power supplies I have no use for. :-) Jeff Walther -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
