Does anyone know why Apple doesn't license someone to make connectors for other types of power. Say for example for a cars 12 volt lighter (I forget what the "right" term is)? I heard a rumor that's bound to be crap that says that originally Apple wanted to serialize them so that you could only use the power supply that came with your computer. If you broke that, you would have to order a new one. Sort of like the deal with the fancy new car keys that go for a couple of hundred a pop. -- Take care | This clown speaks for himself, his job doesn't Wayne D. | supply this, at least not directly Part-time musicians are semiconductors ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
