Toast, how? Physically mangled, or just not working? If the latter, it
might be possible to fix it. (Even if you're not up to that, don't pitch
it - someone else might be interested in it as a repair item.)

The other thing you could do is install a BA11-S power supply (H7861); some
are available on eBay. They are compatible (physically/electrical interface),
the H7861 just has a few more amps of +5V.
