    The other thing I was thinking of doing was unplugging the power supply, 
letting it set for a while, and then turning the switch on, in the hopes 
that this would help discharge the capacitors too.

Any thoughts?

The thing will discharge itself if you let it set a short while.  Second,
there is only 24 volts or so on a cap and I've worked on them hot and as
long as you stay out of the primary 110 side, no worries.  It won't zap
you.
