Right off the main power transistor. The power consumption is really 
quite low, though I usually like to run 12v fans off the unregulated DC.
Only annoying thing about that is the busier the computer is, the more 
that unregulated supply sags, and the fan's speed drops. I guess its 
like an audio cpu load meter.
