| You don't realy have to stop it, just drop the number of pc's and don't run them 24/7 (by example, only when you're home and not while sleeping) |

| Yeah, what's the trick? I run 4 machines 24/7 but 2 draw very little power and the 2 XP's combined don't use as much as a prescott. Electricity and Natural Gas combined averages $80.00US per month...uhh, about 60-65 euro's?. I imagine I'm not comparing apples to apples though; am I correct in assuming you folks in Europe pay quite a bit more per Kwh? |

| Calfornians pay less for electricity and natural gas, mind you. My natural gas bill runs an average of $180 per month (averaging four seasons); electicity is about $120 per month. Utilities cost less in Southern/Western states; they suck in the Mid-west region.
