It can be used as long as you have the schematic for the logic board you are going to use. Just
connect the voltages that are needed. What Mac are you going to use?

Okay, now you just need to match the voltages using the schematics. Good luck.

If I recall the B&W g3's stock pwer supply is nothing more than a 220 watt atx psu anyway, so you should be set.

I think you are recalling the beige G3 ubergeek. As far as I know the B/W is all Apple. I would
be happy to check mine though.
