The power supply is really 200 watts — and still not enough to reliably drive multiple external drives and side-bus devices at the same time? Weird. A PClone with 130 watt supply can handle 2 floppies and 8 boards in slots, though it's pretty rickety at the point and a 180 watt supply would be a lot better for the system. Ah well… I really don't know much about electricity, I just use it. It works, ergo don't fix it… >Bela<
