For the record I've had all my IBM PSUs apart. Even
the one in the 5154
monitor which is rivetted together - mine is now held by self-tapping screws.
Speaking of IBM power supplies, I just tore into my Series/1's large tape
drive(wasn't in working condition after that fall down the stairs
anyways...). To my suprise, there was a commercial(and not IBM branded)
5vdc, 11A power brick on the back! Just think of the possibilities... ;-)
And of course the normal huge IBM supply inside with all those huge filter
capacitors and huge terminal blocks and lots of wires... Getting those
motors out, however, is a very interesting adventure. :-)
