I noticed this before and again last night. I am changing plugs from a bad supply to a good one. There is a connector with 20 or so wires that plugs into the motherboard. 6 different color wires. But all the wire of a poarticular color go to the same trace on the power supply circuit board. So all the reds to one trace, all the yellows to another trace and so on. So why all the different wires to the motherboard? It can't be just because it is harderfigure out how to route the traces. A bigger connector with more wires costs more money and every computer I've seen is the same. Thanks, Eric
