The discussion here is quite scary and depressing if it is representative for the/. gang....
So you mean that concentrating all the blades to a single PSU with 70% efficiency would consume less power than having multiple PSU:s with 70% efficiency! What component exactly would consume less power in this case?
And for the outher guy claiming that "waste" power heats with less efficiency than a heater. Sheesh... Go catch up on your physics!
Living in a country where you need to heat your building 75% of the year I don't really think it make that much difference if the heat is generated by radiators or gadgets. Remember that all the energy will become heat eventually. Never seen this taken into the approximations on extra energy spent though....
Is there a patch available that applies cleanly against 2.6.8.1? The one on namesys.com will generate quite a few rejects and I don't have the time to tweak the files manually just now.
Eager to try it out though!

So I guess violence is OK in the US then. But the devil will grab you be the b...s if you show a nipple somewhere. Quite funny ;-) And sad....
