    This is why my D820 only runs during races. On my income (which thanks to Uncle Sam is now $30 less) I am on more or less a "fixed" income. This why most of the time my laptops are doing all the work.

    My Bill however is nothing compare to some of you that may wish to trade! NORMALLY I pay about $50 - $60 per month. However this past Dec and Jan I paid over $110 in order to keep my water pump from freezing up. In the long run I think I came out cheaper because I don't have to put out for a new Pump which would run between $300 to $400.

    So I am down to my D820 and 5 Laptops (I sold the Dell 2200 to pay on a gas heating bill!)

    Sounds like we need to get you a calf. Beef prices are high enough, you might be able to pay your electric from the profits. You could cut your taxes by claiming your a farm and get the lawn mowed for free.

    I did the same thing all winter here in Louisiana! Keep my garage and back portion of my home warm and toasty with electrons flying through the air.

    I'd like us to observe a moment of silence to remember this poor cruncher on the sacrifice it made to let his leader stay afloat and let his little lappy friends keep crunching. You will be missed my dear cruncher, you shall be remembered as a hero.
