A little off topic, but I was wondering with all this talk of 1000w PSU's. If you want a machine to collect a small amount of data for long lengths of time, eg, tracking stock market, would you be better off with a laptop that would not suck much electricity. Does a 1000m PSU constantly suck 1000w for the power bill. If so, would I be better with a second machine with a small PSU seeing it may be on for 24/7 collecting a smal amount of data, and not ware out the main powerfull machine?

Kind of thinking out loud here.
