No, the 90 deg cable that came with my Plus bends down away from the power switch. There are no 30amp IEC 320 power cords, certainly not in the use. The wall plug is only rated at 15 amp. And most such cords are only rated at something like 6-10 amps. > john > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On > Behalf Of Cyrus Griffin > Sent: Monday, June 08, 2009 11:27 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: Power cords?? > > > Well ok, this is getting weirder - I was looking online and from what I can > tell, the power plug is in the same orientation on the Macintosh 128k, 512k, > and Plus.
