RE: fit-PC Slim require 12v

You can adjust the value of R2 and R3 to get 12vdc out if you like or use the fixed value version of the IC regulator: LT1085CT-12 or LT1084CT-12. (In the case of the fixed regulators, simply ground pin 1 and eliminate R2 & R3).

The power supply is pretty much text book & app note from the chip maker. It's a basic bridge rectifier followed by a pi section filter and low drop-out voltage adjustable regulator IC made by Linear Technologies. While it's more common to find a pi filter with choke in a high voltage tube power supply, nothing says you can't use one in a low voltage setup.
