I completely agree. There is a lot of wasted power out there. I'm currently using a Toshiba Satellite 300CDS notebook computer (which is roughly 10 years old) as an intranet web-server and web-controlled jukebox. It has been working great for months now. It uses roughly 10W of power with the LCD off and the battery fully charged, which is acceptable by my standards.
