Depending on how much you pay for power you may actually save $ by upgrading your "D" foot warmer. I bought one in late 2005, and recently calculated that a new m/b plus E1200 Celeron would pay itself off within something like 7 months, solely on power savings... might even try sticking the E1200 into the 2005-era m/b and see if it works.
