	[* black] The 2nd Generation Apple TV has a rated 0.3 amp current draw. That's only 20% of the amperage drawn by its square unibody cousin, the [guide\|3094\|Mac Mini]. Once we get inside, the internal power supply should tell us its real draw.
	[* black] Apple has branded the model number as A1378.
-	[* icon_caution] Check out all those scratches near the power socket! They were the result of wiping off dust with a microfiber cleaning cloth so it's no ~~wonder why they shipped~~ the Apple TV with a strip of black tape stuck around its perimeter. Presumably, Apple used low density plastic for the case to aid in the transmission of infrared, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth signals at the expense of scratch resistance.
