Dinosaur of a computer needs repair

just make sure you recycle it and not just throw it away. units like the one you just got do alot of damage to the environment. you might be able to melt down the plastic and sell the plastic to a plant...

I keep two of them at my desk. They have paid for themselves a thousand times over a long time ago. One of the handiest little doodads you'll ever buy.

Can you get them in the UK?

Could you plug an IDE DVD Drive into this, with a SATA HDD?

If you check the website that SirKenin provided you'll see that they have four different types of power connector types. UK, Europe, Aus, American....And in the process of ordering it's asks you to choose what kind of outlet. My best reccomendation, ask before you buy. That'll be the only way to know for sure.
