My new Windows box with 6 spinny drives, an SSD and two 24" monitors can go up to 400W when I crank up the graphics card. I had to get a new UPS for my office because of it. :)

I know that my 8203-E4A with four CPUs (or cores?), five 10k disks, 32GB of RAM, RAID option, and HEA draws around 400W when idle. And creates an awful lot of noise.
That's (also) why I stick to my relatively savvy 150: Four 10k-Disks, 192MB RAM (max), Ethernet, TR, around 100W. :-)
For Comparison, an 800, disabled sidecar, two 10k-disks, 4GB RAM draws around 170W.
So, power is really something to take into account when comparing with "cloud" (aka: hosted) solutions.
