My Mac II has developed power supply problems.  Since it's 8 months
old, it's out of warranty, so the dealer says I have to replace the
power supply (it's a "sealed unit" so it can't be fixed).  This would
be $360 plus $30 for labor, except that I changed the fan, so it's
doubtful Apple will take it back.

The problem appears to be heat-related.  In the morning, when it's cool
in the house, the machine won't power up (neither the keyboard switch
nor the rear switch work).  After a while, the machine gets warm and
powers up fine (it's around 80 in here right now, and it just powered
up 10 minutes ago).  So, for now, I'll leave it on (it's on a surge
supressor, and even though we are having lots of lightning these
days, it's not causing electrical problems, so I think I'll be
safe).

Still, I'd like to get it fixed or replaced for a more reasonable
price.  Any ideas?
