Insect Conductivity

I lost the power supply and motherboard of my Mac G4 - while living in India (where I bought it) - I was away from home for a long weekend; returning Sunday night I switched the machine on - it ran fine for a few minutes and then there came a very faint crackling noise - the monitor began doing subtly evil things as I was trying to figure out what the fsck was happening - then the nasty, acrid smoke started, followed by a resounding *crack!* from within, and all went black and expensively quiet. Attracted by something, a stream of medium-sized red ants were ascending the power cord and swarming into the fan grilles on the power supply - turning it on had blown sufficient quantities of them into the HV side to cause hymenopterous formicidae ionization and subsequent zapping of circuits not engineered to tolerate 220V 50Htz - namely the damn power-contoller / standby / 'sleep' chips... The motherboard I bullied the local Apple distributor into replacing - however, I had to agree to buy another PS... it was genuinely FUBAR. Cheers John 'Backdraft' Lawson
