If a power supply is made by a company named 'SuperPower Inc' and I have
never heard of them before, I consider it a no name power supply.  If it
says 'Antec' and I have heard about them and only good things, then I
consider it a nice name brand power supply I would consider buying.

I would rather not have the cheap crap destroy my expensive hardware or
cause odd crashes and reboots (I have seen cheap power supplies do
that).  My time is worth something to me, and I don't want fried HDs or
CPUs or motherboards due to cheap power supplies.
