PEB Questions...

[cbmeeks]

After a LONG delay, I am finally getting back into some TI goodness.  We've recently moved to a new house where I will have more room to do some restorations of computers (I'm looking at you Franklin Ace) and I will finally have a nice permanent spot for my retro computer.

 

So, on the PEB, are there more modern power supplies that I can put in it?  Something with a super quiet fan or maybe no fan at all?  I posted a while back that my fan is actually pretty quiet but I'm wondering if there is a "near silent" way to run the PEB? 

 

Regarding the fire hose...is there something that can be done to reduce that behemoth?  If there was a right-angle adapter that would be cool.  I bought a right-angle VGA adapter for my F18a and it makes positioning the TI much easier for a small desk.

 

Thanks!

Greg is currently working on the console power supply modernization and I expect something to materialize in the next month or two.
