"2 examples

the FitPC2 is running at 6-8 watts or 4.32 - 5.76 KWh per month), it's doesn't get much better. the Intel GMA500 is said to play full HD (but that's not really a requirement for a server, or is it?).

the Acer Aspire Revo, as a comparison, with it's ION GPU is consuming 22-27 watts (or 15.84 - 19.44 KWh per month).

so the difference would be about 11 - 14 KWh per month.

now the 'extra $' depends entirely on the rate your supplier is charging. :)

mind you, those figures are based on 24/7 operation and do not include costs for a monitor or external hard drives you may connect."
