I can't tell for the exact machines Theo is using, but here are a few values from my bunker: - VAX 4000/106 (fast vax, 100MHz processor), quite similar to the one Theo is using, two SCSI disks: about 95W. - Alpha LX164 (2nd generation alpha, 533MHz processor), with a modern (2 years old) ATX power supply, only one disk: about 85W. - SGI Fuel (700MHz R16000), original power supply: about 200W. - 1.4GHz G4 Mac mini: 40W. - SPARCstation 20, 150MHz RT625 processor, one disk: about 115W. - Sun Blade 100 (500MHz UltraSPARC-IIe): about 65W. - HP Visualize B2000 (400MHz PA-RISC): about 130W. - Lemote Fuloong 2F (800MHz): about 20W. - Plextor PX-EH160L (landisk): about 15W.
