you basically take the green wire from the 20/24 pin connector on the second power supply and (solder/clamp/splice/ or what ever you want to call it) to the primary power supply so than when the computer is turned on both power supplies will turn on.
hmm... wouldnt it need to be solderd on both black and green wire? or could i just solder the green wire from the secondary psu to the green on the primary?

ya the green from the first power supply will be grounded when you hit the switch so there for the green wire from the second one, if attached to the first, will then ground as well and turn it on.

Oh Snap! I've got a really cool idea depending on what youre going to use the second psu for. If its just for lights and flashy gizmo's that arent needed ALL the time then get an older P3 power supply with a hardwired switch. That way you can turn on/off your bling. They are usually 250-350 watts which is enough for all your accessories.
Just a thought,
