[fascistmuffin]

If anyone was looking at something that'd monitor outlet use, newegg has Kill a Watt meters on sale. I can vouch for these, as I used them in electrical engineering courses.

Just a word of warning (not warning really)... The LCD is not lit, and is really tough to read crouching down behind your computer desk with your neck turned to 1 side.

Simple solution?  Hook it in to a nice thick extension cord, then hook that in to the wall then you can at least move the damn thing around under your desk until you can read it.

Perhaps I should move my desk.

Perhaps they can screw this old model and push out a new one!
