The only pins I'm not sure about are the +3.6v pins. The ATX +3.3v ones might suffice, but I'd have to try it to be sure. Your best bet might be to find a replacement IBM supply on eBay -- it's amazing how many old parts you can find there. Hope that helps :) @Shahram Alavi: It seems as though a swap might be feasible.

I've just purchased an old 400 mhz Strawberry for what equals around 35 $ with a fine startup chime and no dislplay - with the intend to do an ATX conversion, still making it as small as possible (and a friend of my has an ols LC III lying around) So this could be the answer.

It should be possible to do almost the exact same thing with a true slot-loading iMac. This machine is now slot loading, thanks to the DVD-ROM and floppy slot widening.

Has anyone done it with a slot load machine yet? I have like three of these sitting around gathering dust and the only thing is that the power supply is dead. This is awesome.
