| Guest | Re: power consumption? Mine draws 6W in sleep, which is the same as when it is switched off. Only by unplugging it does it go to zero. SteveT |

It still consumes power, but not much more than powered off, plugged in. When the system is powered off the mouse, keyboard, or LAN could still be powered, to perform wake-up functions, depending on their BIOS settings. |

| Guest | Re: power consumption? unless you pull the plug or turn off the power strip, the machine will draw between 25-40W in sleep/hibernate mode or 6-10W when 'off'.

Hibernate is like OFF you imbecile, windows just writes the data from the ram to the disk and turns off! you can unplug it for a week, then plug it back in, turn it on, and it will restore the state from hibernation!
