Frequently asked questions

What does true RMS mean on a multimeter?

A true-RMS meter measures AC voltage and current accurately even when the waveform isn't a clean sine wave, as with variable-speed drives and switching power supplies.

Why do some Macs need special drivers?

Apple used deep-set hex and Torx screws in the Power Mac G5 that ordinary short drivers can't reach.
