Hi Patrick

I have a customer who runs the 1500 and 2500 board in a rack mount chassis
using standard PC 2U PSUs. The trick is to make sure you include the auxiliary
12V/GND which is normally yellow/black on the loom (4 pin on the 1500 and 10
way on the 2500). Not having the extra power rails will obviously limit the
power you can take which will depend on what you are attaching to the board,
e.g. Graphics cards etc. To do a full job you would need to add the extra
connectors which are easily and cheaply available, being standard Molex ones.
