Short review of $550 power cord plus a new SWTPC 6800

[Michael Holley]

With all of this ragging on audio nut who spend obscene amounts of money on 
wire, I  decided to at a look. I don't know why we call them crazy, they 
don't have 1975 computer running in the basement.

The guy in the next office is in to high end audio. (Although he claims that 
he is in the lower end of the people in his audio club.)  I asked if he had 
a power cord so I could take some pictures. He had a spare PS Audio xStream 
Statement Power Cable, the 2 meter version lists for $550. This is 6 gauge 
oxygen free copper with machined connectors. The cord has a ferrite 
impregnated jacket.

Here is my short review of the power cord

I took it home and hooked it up to my new custom case computer which also 
cost me about $550. It is a modern 3 GHz Pentium that looks like a 1975 
SWTPC 6800.
