Workstation Power Cord

[Michael Butash]

Oh, I forgot - might want to try Rick at nationwide surplus, he's downtown 
off 7th ave and van buren, and he has a lot of this stuff as a big 
e-recycler.  I get odds and ends from him occasionally, and he sells on 
ebay under the same name, and he deals with server/network hardware.

FYI, i run a 1200w power supply on a pretty standard 14ga c13 connector 
and not burned down my house yet.  Might see if there's an adapter to 
save you some grief - monoprice.com might.
