The generally accepted standard here is that it takes another 50% of wattage
to cool the dissipated heat (taking into account seasons and geography).
This is just one of many "hidden" factors that make energy consumption more
of a cost factor that most people imagine

Andy,
We just finished a study for our "typical" PC (Compaq Evo) with a 17" CRT.
Using an ammeter, we measured about 40-60 watts depending on your activity.
We didn't measure heat output but 99.99% of that wattage becomes heat so it
should be easy to calculate.
Sorry, no info on thin clients.

Things I need to calculate.
Existing power used by PC and CRT monitor versus a thin client with LCD
screen.
Need to take into account heat output power consumption etc.
Anyone got anything they have either done themself or seen online.
Send offlist if required.
Thanks in advance
