I too am having a power supply problem. My Mac (128 updgraded to 512e with Apple & MacMemory upgrades) went dead (screen dark, etc.) suddendly. All I get now is a rapid clicking sound (apparently from the speaker) My local dealer quoted $170 to swap power supplies. Does anyone have any ideas for repair/replacement that won't cost quite so much? Again, send mail and I'll summarize. Thanks, Robert -- Robert K.
