Does anybody know where one might obtain a replacement power supply
for an RT?  Email or followups are fine.

I hate to followup to my own post, but an obvious alternative to
replacing our defective power supply would be to repair it.  The
symptom is that the supply runs for about a minute and then shuts
itself down.  No muss, no fuss, no smoke.  After resting for a minute
or so, a power cycles brings it back to life for another minute.  Has
anyone been this route before?  Is it a common failure mode for these
supplies?  I have found nothing obviously wrong inside.  Any advice
would be gratefully received.

In a related question, has anyone fixed one or had one fixed?  There 
seems to be some kind of common failure mode where it shuts itself off 
after a minute.  

Anyone have a source for power supplies that can produce +5V @ 37 amps?
