Turning off PC save you dough

Are your power bills getting you down? If so, one of the biggest culprits could be the very computer you’re using at this moment. Since the typical desktop computer consumes approximately 400 watts of energy per hour, at a rate of $0.10 per kilowatt hour the computer will probably cost you $0.04 to run every hour. Since most people think that paying 4 pennies an hour is pretty darn cheap, they tend to leave it on 24/7, with torrents being the main activity when away from the computer. This will translate to $350.40 annually. Simple math shows that turning the computer off whenever you’re not around could help you save a significant amount of money each year that can be used for other altruistic purposes. The next time you leave the house, just make sure your PC is turned off. Oh, and do sign up for the nearest Torrents Anonymous program.
