Petz, But don't you have a tiered rate? -- the first XXX KWH at 0.14, the next YYY at 0.17, etc.

Yep. But the highest tier was $0.14 for me. I'm not sure whether other places in SoCal have the same rates as I do, though.

As for using 68w as the power difference, that was based on the measurements when the computers were doing nothing, its worse at full load.

Off the top of my head (since I don't feel like looking up the numbers myself), Prescott ought to be around 90W at peak. You're telling me that Athlon 64 at its peak is less than 22W?

LOL, yea, I sneak around the house turning off the teenagers' PCs every night.

Ah, but think about all of the money you're saving by not having to buy CDs and DVDs for your kids. "You want to buy the Lord of the Rings DVD set? Forgetaboutit, just download it yourself. What, you think money grows on trees?"
