Still use it as it happens. Yep, I built my own too. The "BCIT standard Powersupply" If I can remember where they are, I'll dig out the Gerbers and schematics for that old beast. If I can't, it's a pretty simple circuit to whip together. It's the mounting that's the most annoying part. So, if I remember to do so, when I get my PC back up (had a LAN party on the weekend, and haven't had time to get anything reconnected on my development box, which also happens to be my gaming box) I'll do what I can for ya. --Brendan -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The list server can filter out subtopics (like ads or off topics) for you.
