> Besides the cooling issue (and the noise of the fan!), don't forget that a PC power supply is normally controlled from the motherboard. That has as a side-effect that you can't simply hook up an ATX power supply: it won't provide power until it "senses" the motherboard. In short: you'll have to modify it. Search for it online, and heed any warnings and safety precautions!
