Oh, yes, I assumed he'd be hotwiring the "power on" low. Should
have mentioned that. You could always wire up a switch for *that*
if you wanted to, but if the supply already has a mains switch,
it's much easier to just wire the power on line to ground and use
that.

[I]f you have
an ATX supply with a switch on it (which seem to be
rarer these days), that would do the trick.
Maybe. The ATX supplies with switches I've seen have the switch in
series with the mains, so it just allows you to hard power-down without
losing ground - it doesn't allow you to manually force the supply to
power up.
Or are you talking about a switch that _does_ override the wiring
harness's "please power on" line? I've never seen one, but that
doesn't mean they don't exist....
