If I remember correctly some time ago a PC eats about 120 pounds a year.
Maybe less without a monitor. I am looking to upgrade my only 24/7 from a
P2
400 to something with a little more oomph soon and that runs without a
monitor. Didn't tell Wifey about the running cost so she happy.

That _almost_ makes me feel better :(

Hmmmm...I generally only have 3 PC running 24/7.  The HA Server (350
Celery), the Jukebox (P200 Pentium Pro - thanks Paul) and the ShowShifter
box (1.4Ghz Athlon).

The SS machine was only added last quarter - how much leccy does a PC use?
