Lol, there's no way I'd ever buy that...I think it satisfies me to know that I'm sucking down more power than the entire rest of my house...and probably more than any individual on the rest of my city block uses. Well, maybe that doesn't satisfy me, but it sure doesn't bother me enough to go pay over a thousand dollars extra to buy a slower computer than either of my current two. If it performed exactly the same as an AMD XP 2200+ and cost like, $50 more, but used like, 1/8 of the power, I still wouldn't buy it...but that's because I'm cheap like that. For the first time like, ever, I paid extra to have something shipped to me faster than the slow-ass-lama-shipping (I paid an extra $3 to get 3-day, rather than ground, and believe me I had to think hard about that one. I probably did it because subconsiously I thought it'd make my hard drive get here faster...).
