Mine has one (PSU fan)  too. It is horribly placed -- just in back of
the optical drive, but, hey, what can you do?  I don't think I'll buy
another Pundit again.  Too small, too hard to fit 2x PVR-250s in
there, and it overheats sometimes (thats my room though -- a server, a
computer, a laptop and that [the Pundit] are almost always running.
Plus sometimes I have one on the bench to work on for a customer.  It
gets quite warm in there.  ;-)
