Got Bill taken care of, he's back up and running. 

BTW, that mecca of all things electronic (Radio Crap) in the Mall
carries a replacement 12v DC brushless fan that seems to works just
fine. Same size, mounting holes, etc. Thank goodness for de facto
standards and a local TandyCo.

The PS is a son of a gun to fillet, but once open, the fan can be
swapped with minimal hassle.
