I highly doubt this person needs more than 250 Watts, which seems to be good
for almost any machine. I've read ppl running Athlon 1ghz and such with 230W
PS, though I would recommend something higher. I have a 300W for 3 CD-ROM
drives (don't even know why i have all them, CD-ROM, DVD, CD-RW) and 1 20GB
HDD, P3 500, 3 fans, and I've never even thought about a power issue. I
don't think many moniters are powered via the computer anymore. Only my
really old Pentium 233 did this, and I've never seen any others since.
