IBM's own AT used the same style with the switch on the PSU itself (that image I posted is for one), and I have an unbranded AT clone (486 era) with the same style. That "AT with separate mains switch" style was probably an interim design that was used for tower cases before ATX showed up.

Almost all personal computers around 1996 were like this.
