Yep. Actually i already built linear power supplies when i was younger. But the bulk of a 450W linear PSU would be nowhere near 2 small fanless switched PSU's... Not to mention the weight !
Moreover i don't trust my own soldering / electronics skills enough to build a PSU for a $2500+ PC... And the sum of component prices would be quite high as well.

I'll put my trust (& my money) into those neat RSG Elec boxes. They're small and designed for industrial applications - it means rugged. I think i'll take the 150W 12V+5V one, waiting for the price.
