computer power supply with built in outlet

Thanks guys!
Krick, does that supply kick as much butt as it says it does? I definately want to throw on a power strip with all my arcade cab stuff and have it turn on and off with the PC.
Where's the best place I can buy/order this bad boy from?
ALSO, the website says it works with pentium mobos. I am looking to build an Athalon computer. Will it work?
If you guys could give me some help in the motherboard selection process, I'd appreciate that to. I saw this one in comp usa the other day, but I dont know if the board is good, or if the price is good.
(I definately need an AGP slot for an Arcade VGA card tho)
The mobo I saw was an ABIT AV8 Socket 939 Motherboard for $150. Is this compatible with the power supply?

Sorry if I missed this, but why would you do this when you could just buy the MsartSteip from BitsLTD for half the price (http://secure.ultracart.com/cgi-bin/UCEditor?MERCHANTID=SMART%20&OVERRIDECONTINUESHOPPINGURL=http://www.bitsltd.net/smartstrip/buy.htm%20&ADD=SCG4)?
You are going to use a outlet strip anyway....
I just finished (well 90%) anyway my first cab and I used this. I mounted a momentary switch in my speaker panel and wired it to the Power swtich connection on the motherboard. Couldn't have been simpler and works like a charm. Fires everything up with one push; shuts it down just as easy as well.
I even added a potentiometer to my PC speakers so I have a volume control knob as well.
I am so proud of myself. LOL ;D
