Hey,
I'm looking into the possibility of buying a power supply to wire up to plug into my ColecoAdam so I can run it sans the printer which I do not have(and really do not want either). I figure, it shouldn't really need to be as beefy as the one in the printer, since it's not powering the printer.... not to mention, running a powersupply too far below it's max capacity tends to result in it not opperating very efficiently.. or so I've read.
Anybody got an idea how many watts would be good enough? Last I looked stuff up I didn't find a whole lot of documentation.
