A positive note on quality --

I can't tell you how beefy this Mac II power supply is.  Just a moment
ago, I nearly kicked the power plug out of the outlet.  The screen
began to shrink and the machine began to die, but then my foot moved
and it reacquired power.  The CPU didn't even crash.

A few months ago, I actually kicked it all the way out of the wall.  I
reached down and put it back in within a second or two.  Once again,
the CPU didn't even crash.

Thanks Apple, for putting such a beefy power supply in the Mac II.
