I've just bought one of these for my Intel Atom mini-ITX PC:-

http://www.mini-box.com/picoPSU-90

And suitably impressed with how tiny it is, and how stable the power is from it. Super efficient also (provided you've actually got a machine that will run on less than 90W... Smile )

Nice review here (120W model) :-

Yeah, you just need a standard laptop style AC/DC 12V power brick, which are pretty cheap from most Mini-ITX shops.
