Hey all.
I am getting a new G4 Cube shortly, but it
was only €15 and comes without a power
block.
My question to you is now:
1) Is it possible to build/scavenge a Cube PSU or
2) do I have to scour eBay for it?

It would be foolish NOT to buy a Cube this cheap,
even if it is without power block, so I'm quite
set on buying it.

Cheers,
Bert

NICE FIND! I say you scour ebay anyway, you might get lucky and find a cheap one and save you the hassle (and risk) of building one fromm scratch

You are so lucky.

Id scour ebay and find a power block seems safer.

Try the cubeowner.com site and see if you can get a used powersupply from them. I got a 4x DVD drive from there a while back for my iMac.
