=A3120 a year sounds a bit high and seems to have been worked out just on
the maximum rating of most PSUs - for example:
We pay 5.17p/unit which would mean that a PC over a year uses 2321kw.
That works out at 6.5Kw/day or 260w/hr which is the full rating for most
PSUs.
Does anyone know what the actual draw of a typical PC is once powered up
and running? I would have thought less than 100w.
