You can buy adaptors that allow you to plug in new ATX PSU to an old
Mainboard. I have one in my hand now. I bought it from Evolution Xtreme.
I can't remember how much it was but it wasn't expensive.
I bought them for the same reason. The ATX PSUs were cheaper than the
ATs and starting to get difficult to source.
