Woa, hold on there... People use IBM PC power supplies in Apple II's all
the time now, especially since they're much harder to find these days.
That in NO WAY AT ALL means that people are saying that IBMs and Macs are
superior.

As to Budi's question. Yes, it is possible to use an IBM power supply.
Contact Dr. Stephen Buggie, who currently converts IBM supplies to work in
IIgs and IIe computers. I'd post his e-mail address, but I don't have it.
