Power supply is 220W. The only one I have actually heard about being field tested is one of the Clary's that what's his face in BYTE was babbling about. I mean if the guy got zapped buy lightning, this sounds like a decently built piece of hardware. Any recommedations you folks can make? Just for your info., it will be used with ISC Unix 3.2 Also, I have a related query. Is there something I can plug into my wall outlet, and plug something into this black box, and the black box will tell me how much power is being used by this device? Like my computer, and various and sundry other devices(microwave, fridge, washer/dryer, etc.) Please email as this group gets expired faster than I can read it :( Thanks!
