on the same topic, now that it's cold outside for 90% of the viewers of this website, it doesn't matter how much energy your computer or monitor uses; they become 100% efficient once you start paying to heat your home. Any electricity not used for computing/cooking/lighting purposes all goes into heating your home.
Congress passed a ridiculous bill phasing out incandescent light bulbs completely over the next several years. I wonder if they realized that incandescents are only less than 20% efficient in the un-heated months. A person in Maine or Alaska is wasting their money trying to buy efficient appliances most of the year.
