I got my electric bill the other day and it was only $35.00. Last year it was about twice that. It's 0.09 cents per KW charged and 0.05 cents per KW delivered. I actually brought to the picket line I'm on to show a few other electricians. I was unemployed this March and last March. The only difference was that my computer died late February 08 and possibly my brother's computer maybe being off. When I'm unemployed and online I can go around 12 hours or more. Surfing and gaming etc.

I usually run high end compu equipment for that reason. Now I really want that kill-a-watt. I was a hardcore overclocker when it was necessary to do so. Here's my monster 24" crt and specs. I paid $500 rather then $2000.00 for it since it had an unnoticeable 1/4" scratch. I still have my Prometia cpu chiller.

I don't think I've had a bill this cheap since before I got my first color monitor back in 1996. Life was simpler when you could search the web in green or orange text mode.....

Now as life would have it, my XO laptop, showed up. So some here will appreciate the dichotomy between the two toys.
