[Cube] Cube power supply failure

[Eric Haulenbeek]

The power supplies are separate by design. You don't run both devices  
off of one supply. As far as the heat in the Cube is concerned once  
it's up and running the temperature will remain relatively  
constant... though I have installed a small fan in my enclosure.
