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<

Hmmm.. I really will have to dig into that. Now you have me wondering if it really is 200 watts. Oh, BTW, Frank Reiter says he has been trying to get past the busy signals on that BBS you spoke about. Regards, Larry.

Busy signals on Pyrzqxgl are inevitable. He should just keep trying. 4am and 10am PST are probably good times to try… >Bela<
