Here is a great little switching power supply which may just meet your needs: http://ramboy.com/cosel.htm. And the price can't be beat.
Switch mode power supplies are more efficient, smaller, and stay cooler. Linear power supplies, on the other hand, are larger, heavier, less efficient, and get warm/hot for the same voltage and current capabilities as a switching supply.
This may be a bit more than your looking for explanation wise but it is does explain them: http://www.emersonnetworkpower-medi...r_vs_Linear.pdf.
