Yeah the broad ATX is kind of a kit to adapt it more broadly to other computers w diff PSUs...

Sorry, the 6100 uses a different power supply and connector. beigeATX is only meant for computers with a 10-pin connector, pictured here:
That's correct - broadATX will receive its own thread when it's ready. I'm very excited to share it with you all soon!

The store page mentions an incompatibility with the IIsi - any more details about that? As far as I'm aware, there are no differences between the IIsi power connector and the connectors on the other Mac models supported. I've used an ATX supply with a IIsi using a home-made adapter cable, and it worked OK without any problems that I noticed.

Yeah, I've used IIci PSUs with IIsi boards. Other than the weird rotation, the connectors are electrically and mechanically identical.

I agree! Unfortunately, some early testers of beigeATX reported that their IIsi would not *fully* boot. Unfortunately, these were also IIsis that had not been known to be working. Given the severity of the cap leakage and corrosion typically present, I can’t rule that out.
Until someone is willing to try beigeATX in a known working IIsi, I don’t want to give anyone false expectations.

Well I’ll be, it never occurred to me to try this in my IIsi, it’s been dead for at least 15 years. I assumed it needed recapping etc to live again and never had the time. How bout that!! Fired right up, probably really should do that recapping now!

One thing I did run into was that the 3D case is a bit tight on my atx supply with the split connector I had to trim it a bit to make it fit. Not a big deal but anyhow.

This is an excellent data point, thank you for your willingness to try! As for the case issue, that’s something I’ve addressed in a newer revision of the enclosure. Obviously I don’t expect everyone to buy a whole new beigeATX, so I’ll be reaching out and adding a page to the store where Revision 1 owners can get an updated case. Happy to hear your IIsi is alive!
Hi everyone, I want to buy some beigeATX to replace my dying PSU (IIci, IIcx, IIsi, ...) but can't buy directly from Anserine as their shop cannot deal (yet !) with EU countries. Is there anyone from this forum that can buy some for me (like 5) and then ship them here in EU (Belgium) ? Of course, I'll pay the extra shipping costs, ....
Thanks,
Thanks,

You could order some of the open source ones? How's your soldering? The PCB manufacturer will assemble all the surface mount parts and ship to the EU, you just need to put in the big molex parts.
I'd consider soldering a flying lead in place of one of the connectors to be honest.

Soldering is ok, open source is a way I may consider also. thanks for the info.
