anything like that. The ones on the right and middle
are all I know as PSUs. Ya learn something new every day.
Jumping in...
Curious. For 'old shape' C64 machines, I've never seen anything
*except* the wedge-shape design - I didn't know anything else existed
until the time when CBM re-did the machine case itself. Isn't it
exactly the same shell as the Plus/4 PSU, but in beige rather than black?
THis is all I have here for old-style 64 PS:

Now, I only know this as the PS for the Plus/4:

This interesting unit I have seen on VICs:

Of course, while searching, I came upon this item I have never seen.
Another day of learning. I want one!

I have a rounded (non-fin) 2 prong VIC PS in storage, but I can't find
good pics online, so take my word at present that such rounded
non-finned beasts exist.
Truly trivial, but oh well.

pics? I'm not sure I recall a wedge-shaped PSU.
OK, look here: http://jope.fi/cbm/cbm/c64psu.jpg.
The PSU I'm referring to is the leftmost one of the three in that
picture; I've always called them "wedge shaped", but I suppose
"cheese block" would be closer to the mark, LOL.
