Hello,

I have seen plenty of guys using a PC ATX PSU to power up their Macs.
But I'm looking for the complete opposite. I wonder if it is possible
to connect a Mac PSU to a PC Atx Mainboard? Anyone ever done something
similar (and survived ;)?

thx, Andreas

That sounds interesting. I have G4/867 QuickSilver with a dead PSU, and
I am looking for a cheap fix. I have a spare old PSU from a dual 1GHz
Windtunnel, but don't know if I can use that.

Can you point me to the exact location where I can find more information
about ATX-PSU's in G4's (besides www.xlr8yourmac.com)? Do you know if I
can use an ATX compatible PSU to feed my G4?
