How much power is enough??? The new 286 machine I'm building is in need of a power supply. My thought is to put in a 200w supply. Is this enough?? I am planning on running 3 floppies (360k,1.2meg,1.44meg) and two hard drives (50meg 3 1/2", 30 meg 5 1/4" (seagate 157 and 238)). The motherboard will be a 2meg 20mhz 286. Video will be a 16 bit vga. Any thoughts would be helpful. alan
