A freaking 1000 watt power supply. Well, at least now I'll be able to wire that LCD monitor, coffee machine and airconditioner into my machine. |

Q: Why?

WTF is C3PO supposed to be USEFUL for anyway, besides whining? Stupid piece of scrap metal would be more useful recycled as a toaster. But even that would suck, because who would want to listen to a whining wussy toaster? Is he gold plated? If that's the case he should just be melted down into gold ingots. Help the economy some, and stop being so damn useless you stupid bucket of bolts! R2 is 1,000 times more useful than your tin man ass, and he's shaped like a salt and pepper shaker FFS! |

Actually, unless you're homebrewing your own server or something, there's not real reason as of yet.

 Harness The Energy In The Atmosphere To Power Your PC! "Tired of shelling out the to The ManTM for your electrical power needs? Are personal windmill power stations just too passe? Think fuel-cells are great, but you hate having to pay for the hydrogen? What's a self-respecting independent consumer to do? Thanks to the fine folks at ThinkGeek ColdFusionWorks Labs, your dreams have become reality with the Desktop Zero-Point Power Generator! But how does it work? At the quantum level, all matter in the universe vibrates constantly - even at absolute zero! The Desktop Zero-Point Power Generator takes advantage of this seething abundant energy by converting naturally occurring EM energy into 120 Volts / 200 Amps of electricity. The generator is 8 inches square, and weighs just under 3 pounds. When activated, the generator will generate power indefinitely! The unit emits a very quiet whirr, and less than 600 rem of residual ionizing radiation! ThinkGeek recommends you drain the unit's non-volitile waste chamber once every three months, and dispose of the tritium/deuterium slurry at a licensed disposal facility. Sorry, not available in 220V. " Price: $199.99  _____________________

Harness The Energy In The Atmosphere To Power Your PC!... Pro Tip: Spend a little more on the solid lead undercoating. |

That power supply would consume more power per month than every other appliance in my apartment combined. I'd probably have to start brewing meth 24/7 in my Easy Meth Oven just to approach the energy consumption of that thing.
