No, it's this thread about computer casing colouring that I was labelling. We used to have these sorts of arguments in college (studying electronics), many many years ago. The theorists would intricately calculate the inefficiency of the transformer, to work out which ones they should put in a power supply. The rest of us would have a quick look at the specs sheet, and pick one that could handle the current and a few volts more. ... the absurdity of getting bogged down in theory for insignificant gain. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
