Just when things are going well they start to not go well. Last weekend the power supply suddenly died in my seven year old desktop PC. Well actually at first I didn't know what had died but I borrowed a PSU from a friend and confirmed the rest of the PC was okay.

I've ordered a replacement model from a local supplier, and even though I plan to replace the PC within the next 2 years anyway I've bought a silent high efficiency model to see if they make a real difference to the noise the PC makes.

As things go it's not going to break the bank but I don't like it when things break.
