Well the computers all have some purpose which is why they are running. I do leave all of the monitors off unless I am sitting at one of them, but I usually just remote into them. I do think I should look into building up a low power server instead of using the desktops that I currently have set up, though. Also, my wife works from home as an online instructor so she is always on at least one computer (usually while she is watching TV with the kids). I did install a few cfls, but we still have a lot of other bulbs in hard-to-reach spots. I might go buy one of those kill-a-watt devices so I can physically track down our problem devices. All in all, though, my wife will never 'work' at saving energy. She likes the comforts she has and won't be parting with them anytime soon. I don't mind. I just didn't realize that a utility bill could be so low as many of you have experienced.
