Okay, so I have an old iMac G3, which I am planning on turning into a fishbowl. I've gutted the CRT, but I see that the power supply is integrated into the CRT board.
Here's a pic of the board:

What I was wondering was where, exactly, IS the power supply on the board, as well as if I could just use the board as-is sans CRT? I don't want any high voltages being spun up, and the anode thing is on the board. Is that what creates the high voltages? Can it be removed? Howbout those obtrusive heatsinks?
I've seen the 'eyemac' G3 LCD conversion, which has a tutorial for converting the thing to atx. However, I have a bit of difficulty following that tutorial...
Any suggestions?
