    XBOX 360 chugging the power...

    I'd hate to see parents electricity bills if their kids play it 24/7

      Am I reading this right? Like, $20 something a year? Doesn't seem high to me? Or am I missing something?

            Holy shit. not cool. I currently have 10+ XBoxes plugged in & turned On 24/7, each with 15" LCD/TV's. holy fuck. now I've got to factor in all the cell phones, DVRs, cable tv set tops, PCs, Fans... then add on a 70% Electricity rate hike for my State starting next month and I feel like shutting EVERYTHING down. based on the chart, that's nearly $100 per xbox per year just for the Xboxs... and that's before the rate increase. OUCH.

                What are you doing with 10+ Xboxes? Did you grow up near powerlines and grow 15 extra arms?

                  Let's just say it's a sideline hobby (1 box) that turned into a business (10 boxes) that's quickly becoming a JOB (now have I 40 Xboxs and 2 employees)

                  about 15K gamers in the network.
