        For my Ast. Deluxe, I bought an AC fan, and just ran it straight off
the AC line (I spliced it in right after the back door switch). You could use
a PC Case fan (seems like a CPU fan might be too small), but I didn't want to
put a DC fan in there and have to draw more power from the DC power supply...

        Radio Shack has a couple AC fans - Part #273-242 and #273-241.

   Since I just had a new back door cut for my Space Duel, I thought it would be
   an ideal time to cut air holes in the door for the HV and deflection boards.
   I additionally want to add a cooling fan and was wondering if (1) a CPU
   cooling fan would provide sufficient airflow and (2) where the optimal place
   to grab power for the fan would be?

   Any suggestions are certainly appreciated.
