What's this?

Lounge Tech wizards: a simple T or F question -


I’ve had 7 PC computers since I bought my first. I run two now with a KVM switch to a single monitor.

I’ve had two other PCs that required power supply replacements, a relatively simple procedure, i.e., I did those myself.

Yesterday, my older PC, which I do not want to lose, failed to power up. Too busy too mess with it, I let it sit all day and night and today it does the same thing: when I hit the power switch it very briefly begins to power up, and then quits.

Here’s the T or F: this is another power supply issue, right?

(Answers suggesting Mac purchase will be regarded by all as an indication of diminished penile size.)
