Last week, I mentioned Soft Solutions to a guy I met who was in dire need
of a flyback transformer for a Mac Plus which was showing signs of an
impending power-supply meltdown. He phoned this afternoon to say that
he had ordered the upgrade kit, installed it, and that the Mac was up
and running happily with none of the problems it had shown before.
"Really nice folks", he said.
I haven't dealt with them myself... but it sounds as if they're filling
a need and doing it well.
