True, not an anchor. Anchors are the sort of thing I would want to buy at a boat show, for multiple reasons. What I did get was an electrical power inlet (note NOT outlet) like this : https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B08B3MR572? . The new PC that I got the SSD drive for is one of these : https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09DCJ457F? . This machine will make the gamers ... yawn. By current standards, no speed demon, but it does blow the doors off the roughly 2008 PC that it replaces. Further for driving a cutting machine, and some other specialty equipment it is just fine.
