I think that an RL01/RL02 + a small 11/23 or 11/03
actually takes quite
a bit less power than most dual-socket, dual-core Xeon servers do these
days...
Of course, an RM0[235] or RP0[3-7] is a different matter...
Who cares.
When it comes right down to it, in the US at least, power is pretty
damn cheap. Turning on a large system - say one that sucks up a couple
or three kW - for the weekend really does not cost all that much. And
it is for fun, right? How much do we spend taking a girl or the wife
out for dinner and a movie? It will be much more than what you spent
on electricity to feed your computer for a couple of days!
