My G4 1.42 GHz DP Mac tower won't start up anymore (it got harder and harder to start and finally quit), and I replaced the motherboard battery with no effect, so I guess the power supply has died.
There is a G4 power supply for sale on eBay right now: <http:// tinyurl.com/22t3gm9> but neither I nor the seller knows whether it will work in this Mac. Can anybody tell me if it will? If it won't, then where can power supplies for this Mac be looked for? And is the swap-out a simple matter of unplugging the old power supply and plugging in the new? Any advice on this would be appreciated. This MDD has been a faithful old beast over the years, a real workhorse, and never gave any trouble before this. It would be worth resurrecting if a new power supply would do it.
