I have a question which I'm sure has come up before. This summer I will be moving out of my dorm room and into my own apartment. At present, I usually leave my computer on most of the day, since I use it quite often. Lately, my future roommates have been inquiring as to how much power the comp sucks up while running, and how much it would raise the electricity bills if I were to leave it on in the apartment as I do now. My question is: How much power does a normal PC/AT compatible w/ a 40 Meg HD, Mono/Herc monitor & dot- matrix printer consume and how much would it affect an electricity bill?
