The unfortunate fact, Tony, is that here in the U.S,
because people are
accustomed to paying <$25 for a case with power supply (250 Watts is the
rating) including shipping, it's hard to get vendors to stock replacement
fans of any sort, let alone good and quiet ones.
Man, that's a fact. Our wholesaler sells cases with (crap) 250 watt power
supplies for US$20, 250 watt (crap) power supplies by themselves for $19, and
(crap) replacement fans for $15.
Can anyone provide a clue as to why this is so? Basic economics suggests
that it costs a *lot* more to produce a case w/psu than a psu alone --
likewise for the psu vs. the fan . . .
