Well I bought two of the Coolmax units - have P4 and HD and floppy leads
tests so I should be set for onsite and inshop tests - tis the season for
blown modems, NICs and power supplies anyway. I'm tired of carrying around
new power supplies for testing then either having to use one that isn't all
pretty and they think it's used, or having to load it back on the truck to
get banged around some more - put this in my pocket now and if I need a
power supply then a pretty new box comes off the truck.
