That's actually an AT (as opposed to ATX) format box with a AMD Duron 800Mhz processor I think.
Erm are you sure about that ?
ATX was introduced some time around 1995 and pretty much instantly took over from AT as I recall.
The first Duron's didn't appear until circa 2000 and used a socket that wasn't available on mainboards until the release of the K7 in 1999
Therefore I would be very surprised to see an AT format Mainboard than can support a Duron, let alone an AT format PSU that has the capacity to run one.
It's an AMD K6 processor (pre Duron I suspect), definitely an AT box with the power outlet for a monitor.
There are several "types" of power supplies..
* Old style two piece P8 P9 single row connectors. * 20 pin double row connector * 20+4 double row.
The old style had a solid mechanical on/off switch whilst the newer ones use a "soft button" - It is quite possible that either style will have a secondary output for a monitor.
In my collection of "odds'n'sods", I have a PSU with a 20 pin connector with a mechanical on/off switch (about 200W as I recall).. Also have a couple of MoBos that will accept either P8/9 or 20 pin connectors so Chris' combination is quite possible..
If you want real oddball, also have a PSU with just floppy/HD connectors plus a single 2x2 block (just +5V & +12V rails).
