Very Small/Mini Power ATX Power Supply?

Anyone know of any very small ATX power supplies out there. I want to have room in my micro ATX case for both my 150W Opus and a regular power supply so I can just switch the cables when I bring my carputer indoors. Anyone know of any? The one that I have that is just barely too big is 5x4x3 I think.
Thanks

Think you should look for the lpx format. I'm using some 90W psu from an old MSI-6209 and think the size a lot smaller the the one you have.

Only problem is that if he's running the AMD XP processor, an LPX power supply won't supply nearly the right amperage to properly run the motherboard and processor.

didnīt even noticed that he was using that kind of processor. Even if there are a few 200W LPX PSU around, afraid they might be bigger than the one he already has.

Ya, I am going to have a XP 2600 in there now so a 90W won't work. Hmmm maybe a new case.....

I just picked one up at Goodwill Computer Works for $10 that fits those dimensions perfectly. 5"W x 4"D x ~3"H It's 120W and they had about 15-20 of them there. The one I got is an ilssan ISP 120SI. Apparently used for e-machines.

Let me know if you want one and we'll work something out.
