I haven't seen any 24 pin splitter, but there are plenty of 20 pin ones out there.

Then just buy a beefy enough PSU that can put out enough amps to support 2 PCs. I run my 2 IPCop boxes (I have 2 internet connections) off of 1 PSU.

The Dell XPS 700 desktop has a 1000w PSU with two ATX power connectors. Both are used in the system, so I have no idea how it's hooked up or if it's usable like you want. This post is for information only.

I doubt you could use a Dell PSU on a non-Dell mobo, their mobo's and PSU's are proprietary for Dell only.

That's only true for their early P4 systems.

Very early. My work machines are all P4 Dell 4600's and they all use standard PSU's...

Yeah, I know for sure the Dimension 8100 and 8200 are proprietary.
