Power Supplies

Kind of off topic but I am going to get a Athlon XP 2200 CPU and have a 1u 120W power supply. Will this work?

It would work to use the processor and the board, but not much else would be able to operate if you wanted to do anything interesting with that kind of processor and actually make it a good computer.

Then, after your convinced to not use the 120W go to www.newegg.com and buy a decent 300W or 350W that won't break the bank
