[G4] Wanted : quieter power supply and fan - G4 MDD * PS FAN KIT

[jonny]

Paul,

Just an option for the noisy power supply fan.

I have an M12 power supply (quiet powerful) fan kit for an MDD.  I 
bought it, then while waiting 2+ months for delivery, I decided to 
replace the whole power supply on my dual 1.25 ghz MDD, with a new 
apple factory power supply.  The -new- power supply had the 'quiet' 
apple upgrade/fix.  It was spendy.  That done, this piece became 
unneeded.  Ordered from Holland over a year ago.  Brand new, in box, 
as sent.

Sell for $115.00 US (slightly less than I originally paid) includes 
shipping to a US continental destination.  Today's cost for this kit 
in Euros: 109 + 29 (shipping) = 138 Euros = $215.00 US.

ps- you need to know your way around the MDD innards to install this.

Paul, or Anyone interested in this fan kit may contact me:
