I'm currently building an A1200 project.  It's PSU is an ATX.  It was just as easy if not easier than an AT.
To switch it on and off I just put a small chrome toggle switch between the green wire and earth (black wire next to the green one) on the ATX PSU's power connector.  Works fine.  :-)

I had some how lost my original Psu for my A1200 so I used the Floppy power cable to power it from an AT psu...

no idea if its bad to power the A1200 from the Floppy power port.. but seems to work..

(I made it so that it has a Molex plug sticking out the back for connecting to the psu

This will power the motherboard but your sound will be distorted/choppy due to the lack of -12v

The molex only carry +12v, +5v and GND

Ahh good point.. I did not have sound hooked up at all so did not notice that

as you can tell I don't use it much..
