Hold it guys, let's go back to the start of this thread: Janice said that she had a PowerCD, but no adapter for it. She did however, have a different adapter which was 9vac - 1 amp and wanted to know if it would work.
Fabian came on and gave her the specs from his PowerCD adapter: 10VDC - 1 amp. Bruce is right that an ac adapter has no polarity, but that doesn't change the fact that pumping AC through a DC circuit is an exciting thing, complete with sparks, smoke and the snap, crackle and pop of dying components. I do hope that Janice hasn't tried using that adapter yet. Rick -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
