Here's one for Tage & some others, co.

Anyone know where I can find a cheap 400+ watt power supply for my computer?

pricewatch.com.

Or most any computer parts stores near you. Power supplies aren't all that expensive. If you pay $20-30 that's about average (or was a couple years ago). If you pay more than that, I'll laugh at you.

edit: Here's one for ~$10

Yeah, pricewatch is a great place for odds & ends like power supplies. I just ordered a complete system (piece by piece, of course) for Sprig and I used www.newegg.com.

Fun tip
Often it is cheaper to buy a Case & Power supply, than just a powersupply.

Then you could have a stockpile of un-used cases! Which you can send to me!

case in point, my case rocks, my power supply doesn't. Freaking 200-some-odd-watts. Need more power!

Actualy, You take the unused cases, a dremmel, a drill, some bolts,
And you start building computers into unusual things

Start easy, build one into a briefcase!  Get a Halaburton Case,  Cut as needed, Bolt in a Mobo-plate and start building,  Portable PC in 1 afternoon!

Before long,  You will see all kinds of opportunity!  
Pet carriers,
Old NES'es
Woofers
Planters
Drawers - I am seriously wanting to build a cluster of PCs into a vanity!!
Thick Books!  - New Websters Media PC!!
Taxadermist Stuffed Animals - "You plug the Monitor in... where?"
Large Model Kits - "My Starship Enterprise gets 60fps in StarTrek Voyager!!"
Random Appliances - "Hold on, I need to boot up my Vacume"
Furniture - LAN Chair!  Folding Chair with cussion seat, Cup holder armrests, Dolby Speakers and a PC Built in!!
Manaquins!!


Yes I have been called a Techno-Mage before
