Why mess around with the overheating standard IIgs power supply?

Get a cooool-running BUGG-POWER 150 watt external power supply on 5 ft
cable!    Still only $27 plus $5 shipping.

129 units shipped since April 1996, including overseas shipments to
Australia, Sweden, and Belgium (230 volt units to overseas).

All units thoroughly pre-tested before shipping


MONEY BACK (less shipping) if dissatisfied and returned!

Send $32 to:
