Other than the power supply problem on the IIP and fitting the bottom
tray on the replacement IIP, we had no problems running on an XT
clone--Leading Edge.

You might want to be able to swap your IIP if it is one of the one's
with the bad triac's rather than have to wait for it be be repaired.
Please refer to other articles on the power supply (triac) problems.

I would not hesitate to buy more IIP's, but with the availablity of
the III, the II's should come down in price and you can do more with
them, i.e., add killer 3rd party cards to it.
