Mir lives!

So, my new PSU for mir arrived. It's the right dimensions, but, as you would expect, it isn't quite right. It's not that I ordered the wrong one, I ordered the only one. Turns out the power socket is on the end of the PSU. Not abnormal for a PSU, you may think. However, my PSU lies along the front of my case (under the floppy drive), and the old one had an extension cable to the back to plug the thing in. So either I have the computer turned off, or I have the lid on, it's my choice.

Oh, and there are no screw holes in the right place.

Still, should be able to get it to fit, with a right angled plug to a socket for the back, and a healthy dose of meccano to stop the PSU from falling onto the motherboard and crushing the capacitor goodness.

And I said that this was all a bit wag-the-dog-esque... Look at this. Right again...

Anyway, I'm at uni. I have been doing work. I want to go home. I am missing vice city.

YOU CAN SHOOT OUT THE TYRES!
