Can anyone tell me if a Mac IIfx power supply is significantly quieter than the one on the Mac II. From various reviews it seems that it is but since I have never seen a IIfx I don't know exactly how much quieter it would be. Also can someone point me to a place where I can possibly buy one. Here at Princeton they won't sell us components by themselves. Doksu Moon dmoon@phoenix.princeton.edu

Yes the IIfx power supply is much quieter than the II power supply. This is because the IIfx uses a variable speed fan. As for getting another power supply, good luck. You can't usually purchase components without trading another one in. One other thing you might try is having your current II power supply replaced. I had mine done recently and received a much quieter fan in return. My power supply had failed. Brad Kollmyer bradk@wimsey.bc.ca
