Hi gang. FYI Jameco has power supplies for apple2,2+,2e, and 2GS.
49.95 each, 60 watt units, original equipment style.
If you're thinking of one of these you might ALSO want to think about something
called Bugg power - a guy on the a2 newsgroup (comp.sys.apple2) who takes
pc XT power supplies and adapts them to plug into apples. Since the average
XT PS is 145 watts, the apple no longer has power problems (and you barely
have to run the PS's fan) and it gets the power supply and all that heat
out of the case altogether. (it sits on the floor ala C=64 power brick).
I've never used one of these things, but the reviews from people who have are
glowing. As for heat, I noticed in my GS last night it gets right toasty in
there, and the power supply is almost too hot to touch. I expect to be
PS shopping shortly. :(
