[Pc_Support] Reducing Electricity Costs

[Jason Boxman]

Anyone know just how much waste is created from these 'always-on'
appliances?  I just realized my TV is 'always' on.  The DVD player is more
obvious, since it has a standby light.  What about CRT monitors in 'energy
saver' mode?

Is there any sizable savings in screwing with this stuff, or is it not worth
the effort to calculate up how much power things draw?

Also, where I live now has all halogen lights.  How do those compare to CFBs?

Thanks.
