PSU goes power-mad

NoYes

Ever since moving out of the familial home I’ve turned into a right electricity tyrant.  No light goes unswitched, no appliance left active without due cause; there’s something about footing your own bills that makes you pretty damn keen on saving power.  And so the thought of a 1,000W PSU fills me not with geeky joy but a sickening sense of watching paper money burn on a tiny fire.

Yes, with a Galaxy DXX you could simultaneously power twenty-four of your favourite hard-drives, but won’t somebody think of the dozen pandas you’d have to shovel into the furnaces every few minutes to supply all the electricity?  I fear we’ll see a demonstration of Greenpeace activists barricading computer stores on its 27th January launch.
