Generally Fry's isn't very cheap for PSUs, except when they feature a
rebate deal on an Antec or Enermax, so at other times it's better to
get a $19-45 Fortron-Source, AKA Sparkle, Hi-Q, PowerQ, from
www.newegg.com. When I need help at Fry's, I usually ask one of the
knowledgeable customers there. BTW, red tags indicate close-out items
that may be very cheap, and a long line doesn't necessarily mean a long
wait because their line tends to move fast.

Did he say whether they designed their current models from the ground
up or used another company's basic designs?

As before, core units (or PCBs) are outsourced to be built to
PCP&C's specifications. All final assembly, inspection and tests
are conducted at PCP&C. I have toured their plant and have seen
this procedure.

Urban myth. According to an email I got from the GM at
PCP&C, it's not true. But, the myth lives on. He *did*
say that they used one of those brands (don't remember
which one) as the core in their old, low cost 235w model.

I thought that everybody used outside PC board makers, but whose
designs are the core units in the first place?

That answer is part of the "to PCP&C's specifications" above.
