The Cost of Electricity

DateMon 2010-03-15

I have been looking at setting up a web server at home.  As this will involve leaving a computer running all the time, I have been looking at low-power PCs.  While estimating what the impact on my electricity bill would be, I was pleased to discover that, at current UK prices, running a 1 watt appliance for 1 year will cost approximately £1.  This pleases me almost as much as when I found out that I walk at a speed of approximately 100 metres per minute.
