For many folks, home heating and cooling costs swamp the remaining monthly
use charges of electronic appliances. I recently had an energy audit
conducted by my local utility. This home use a total of three HVAC units,
totalling 12 tons and two 80 gallon hot water heaters. My network of seven
PCs, business-class server, and radio shack equipment made up less than a
couple percent of the total monthly energy cost. Until I move to a more
moderate climate and the home has some extremely good energy conservation
characteristics, I'll continue to use linear supplies and incandescent
lights.
