I just picked up my first 5150. It's a later 1983 model, in pretty
stellar condition, with a single top/bottom half-height 5 1/4"
occupying the left full-height bay.
I'd love to add a Winchester disk, but I understand that the early PCs
did not have a power supply capable of driving a Winchester. How can
I tell which power supply I have? My Google-fu has failed me on this
query. Unfortunately it's not sitting in front of me at the moment, so
I can't read any part numbers off of it; I'll have a look later
tonight, but I recall it being a 65W power supply.
