Bzzt!  The original Apple II p/s does NOT have 60 Watts, however, replacement
units generally do (I know, my p/s of 11 years died last weekend and I am waiting
to see the UPS person with a small box for me :-).

Since the original poster mentioned that the power supply will be mounted else-
where anyway, why not use a surplus PC power supply (certain to have enough
wattage and correct power connectors)?
