[Ti] Painful shocks from Ti

[ScottyK at aol.com]

My outlets are good (would a grounded outlet matter since the power supply is 
ony 2-wire?).   BTW, I mentioned I have 2 different brands of power supplies, 
but one has the Apple white brick, and the other has the Apple yo-yo.   The 
yo-yo plug does not rest flush against the TiBook.   Tingles with both - no 
shocks.   No big deal for me - just sharing info.
