Thanks all! I just ordered a 275 watt PC Power & Cooling for $45, regularly
$79. The one I'm replacing I found on the web for $30, so I figure this 
should be better. You don't always get what you pay for, but you almost
never get more than what you pay for.

I ordered from an outfit my son uses, directron.com. He likes them because
they stock funky stuff - like the transparent case and the blue-led lit
fan he has mounted in it.
