Our electronics man reports successful operation of quite a variety of devices, including floppies, VTRs, monitors, etc. from a square-wave power source. He's interested in knowing peoples' reasons for wariness about square-wave AC; if you've got anything specific, mail him at the address below. He knows *some* of the reasons, but wants to know if there are others.
