Glad to hear it, Matt, I'mm looking forward to seeing the pix of your set 
up.  Just for my info, the Buggie power converter cable you mention, what 
exactly does it do?  I assume the 230 watt supply is a standard PC type. 
 Does the output of these types of supplies require conversion (other 
than the pinouts?)  and lastly, where do you get a Buggie cable?

Thanks
Dan
