Hey, thanks for the tip, Mark. I'll wait until Friday to see what they 
offer, no need to rush. I have an account with Newegg already and have 
always been satisfied with their service.

I checked out the specs for a couple of Zalman's PSUs. Nice hardware but 
the prices are a bit steep. At this point I'm leaning towards Ray R's 
recommendation (Antec EarthWatts 500), but I will wait for the Friday 
Newegg special.

Btw, the machine also had a dead RAM stick, one I bought from Crucial. 
You once told me that they have a very good replacement policy, and 
indeed it looks like they'll replace it at no charge. Nice policy, 
definitely makes me consider Crucial before buying memory elsewhere.

Best,
