It looks like the power supply to my decstation 5000/120 is shot. The
storage expansion, which is connected to the the switched C13 on the
power supply, powered up as expected but nothing on the box itself.
There was a bit of a smell, but no magic smoke :) So how hard is it to
repair a power supply for this? My soldering skills are mediocre at
best. Should I bite the bullet and turn it into this monstrosity:

Its really not been my week with my DEC equipment. I almost hesitate to
power up my vaxes!
