    Succes: ATX PSU in Mac IIsi

    I have replaced a dead IIsi PSU with a used Fortron Source FSP300-60GHS 300W PSU which I got from our IT guys at the office. It runs great, very cool. It is a tight fit, I had to alter the original PSU metal case a bit. Of course the 300W is overkill but the Mac will only use what it needs...

He does not know what the value should be, can't read it anymore.  Could someone have a look at R21 and tell...
